What kind of freeware / website are you talking about.
Are you talking about a full featured Content Management System with all kind of modules ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_...
A more specialized kind of website software, eg. a blog site, a wiki, a digital paper site, a commerce one, a non-profit community site, an intranet site, a classifieds site, ... ?
Or a framework to develop from scratch with good support for the features you enumerate ?

I used "EzPublish" http://ez.no some time ago. It is not open source but have, between others, a GPL license, so it is free if you put their logo on the front page.
It is a very well structured PHP app. and have a message file for every page / form of each module, and a great tool for translations ("Qt Linguist") if needed.
--------------
Plone http://plone.org sites are easy to maintain and have good security support, although internationalisation is based on a phrase dictionary. They have lots of modules to use, but the learning curve for creating new ones is very high.
------------
Drupal http://drupal.org is one of the CMS with more social oriented modules, allthough non-standard modules will have to be translated.

Thanks xarcus.
These are great translation tools/sites. But I am lalso ooking for is the ability for my website to be internationalized (code base) ...so that it can be easily localized whenever its needed. Besides language translanslation I will need tools to readily make conversion of other things besides language - such as date format, currency, measurements etc., Thanks for your help!

Except date/time fields there is usually poor localisation support for the rest
EzPublish has good currency support because it has a better commerce oriented feature.

Check the data types http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical...
Plone localisation: http://plone.org/products/plone/roadm...
Drupal specific modules:
Localisation: http://drupal.org/node/81525
There is a currency exchange server module: http://drupal.org/project/currency
Drupal does not have classic 'fields'. See "Why Not to Use Classes" at http://api.drupal.org/api/4.7/file/de...

My recommendation goes for http://www.drupal.org and http://www.plone.org too.
