I really like the latest version of BuddyPress Multilingual. It includes a few great features like translating the email notifications and now we can keep the entire BuddyPress workflow in the current language.
Also, the language switcher has been added to all BuddyPress pages, including the Activity, Groups, Profile, and Register pages.
