Drupal 6 Language Support
Wow, this will be super useful. We haven't even begun to tackle multilingual support for our web presence in the U Libraries, but it has often been discussed. This feature could give us a real leg up:
"Following on a huge amount of discussion and planning at the Internationalization Group, Jose A. Reyero, Károly Négyesi (chx) and Gábor Hojtsy (myself) prepared a big patch to introduce better language support into Drupal 6.x-dev. We got significant code reviews and correction tips from Dries Buytaert, Steven Wittens and Doug Green. As a result, the development version of Drupal 6 now includes a generic language setup screen with support for right-to-left written scripts, native language names, path and domain based language selection and browser language detection. We also added support for language dependent path aliases, so you can have addresses like "example.com/espanol/contacto" and "example.com/english/contact", or alternatively "english.example.com/contact" and "espanol.example.com/contacto".
