Using Apache `mod_negotiation` makes it really easy to have Apache
serve any page in the client's preferred language, if available.
-This is the default Debian Apache configuration.

+Add 'Options MultiViews' to the wiki directory's configuration in Apache.
When `usedirs` is enabled, one has to set `DirectoryIndex index` for
the wiki context.
language code) for the wiki context can help to ensure
`bla/page/index.en.html` is served as `Content-Language: LL`.
+For details, see [Apache's documentation](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html).

lighttpd
--------
-lighttpd unfortunately does not support content negotiation.
+Recent versions of lighttpd should be able to use
+`$HTTP["language"]` to configure the translatted pages to be served.
-**FIXME**: does `mod_magnet` provide the functionality needed to
- emulate this?
+See [Lighttpd Issue](http://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/show/1119)

Usage
=====
An integration branch, called `meta-po`, merges [[intrigeri]]'s `po`
and `meta` branches, and thus has this additional features.
-Self links
-----------
-
-If a page contains a WikiLink to itself, ikiwiki does not normally
-turn that into a hyperlink. However, if a translated page contains a
-WikiLink to itself, a hyperlink is inserted, at least with the default
-`po_link_to` the link points to the English version of the page. Is there a
-good reason for that to be done? --[[Joey]]
-
Language display order
----------------------
to an array to support this. (If twere done, twere best done quickly.)

-Duplicate %links ?
-------------------
-
-I notice code in the scan hook that seems to assume
-that %links will accumulate duplicate links for a page.
-That used to be so, but the bug was fixed. Does this mean
-that po might be replacing the only link on a page, in error?

-
-Name of toplevel index page
----------------------------
-
-Normally at the top index page of a wiki, you see the wiki name at
-the top. However, at the top *translated* index page, you see something
-like "index.da". --[[Joey]]
-
Pagespecs
---------
That's really confusing, especially as clicking such a link
brings up an edit form to create a new, english page.
-This is with po_link_to=current. With default, it doesn't happen..
+This is with po_link_to=current or negotiated. With default, it doesn't

+
+Also, this may only happen if the page being linked to is coming from an
+underlay, and the underlays lack translation to a given language.

Double commits of po files
--------------------------
+"Content-Transfer-Encoding: ENCODING\n"
Same thing happens when a change to an existing page triggers a po file

+
+Ugly messages with empty files
+------------------------------
+
+If there are empty .mdwn files, the po plugin displays some ugly messages.
+
+Translation of directives
+-------------------------
+
+If a translated page contains a directive, it may expand to some english
+text, or text in whatever single language ikiwiki is configured to "speak".
+
+Maybe there could be a way to switch ikiwiki to speaking another language
+when building a non-english page? Then the directives would get translated.
+
+(We also will need this in order to use translated templates, when they are
+available.)
