It seems to me that one of the more substantial challenges would be
developing the subtitling and mechanism for preparing the video
scripts for i18n and L10n.  I briefly looked at the L10n process on
the Khan Academy web-site and I didn't like it very much.

They would do well to use one of the formats supported in the Translate Toolkit

http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/toolkit/subtitles

and enable the use of PO files hosted on a Poolte server to localize
the subtitling process.
