English is good - but there are times that it would be better to have=20
multiple languages running in user CMF userinterface. Since this is not=20
a feature of Zope or CMF yet, what are the different choises of how to=20
do it?

One thing that I have thougth of - is to have the different language=20
versions for actions either in a table ( tinytable or similar ) or in=20
the action string - and handle showing the rigth language according to=20
cookie in the skins. Then for different skins there could also be=20
different language-versions, if needed.

Any ideas? What would be the wise choise - looking to the future and=20
maintaining the site / sites?
