Yes, language selection will be available from the site footer if admin permits it. Filipino translation? Cool! Sure, a bit of English here and there shouldn't bother --- I read spoken Filipino is about 40% Spanish loanwords at any rate!
And Litoz --- great, thank you. 
Since we use UTF8 all around, Russian should work just fine, and if there are quirks, we'll iron them out. (I know the Russian alphabet somewhat, but don't really speak the language.)
I will also do a translation into Finnish when I get a spare moment, and we also have Danish under control with smith and Unna, and she will also look into crunching it into Swedish. She may need a few local tech-heads to help with the jargon though. When language pack work gets moving among the members, we'll have a separate forum section for language stuff.
I really want to see iWiccle properly internationalised! Whenever we get there, there are also a bunch of Asian multibyte languages (Japanese, Chinese, Korean etc.) that will need to be worked out with users who can verify that stuff works. (I haven't coded in multibyte string functions yet, because they are a lot more resource-hungry than regular string functions and the overhead isn't justified for users who don't need it --- it'll be an optional multibyte language switch you can flip on or off.)
