[opencms-dev] OpenCMS 6.0-alpha2 Multi-language support

For 1) You must attach the property "locale" to a folder where the pages are
located (or any parent folder). 

For 2) This is configured in opencms-system.xml

	Hi, 
	  I'm in the process of evaluating whether or not OpenCMS will fit
well for a new application we are developing.  I like the new 6.0 editor and
apparent support for multiple language content, but I am a little confused
on two points.  Searching the mailing list archives has not turned up much,
and the documentation is pretty bare [or nonexistant].  I am hoping that
someone can answer these questions for me, as I'd rather not go back to the
5.x version of OpenCMS.

	1.  I see that I can choose the template and edit the content in a
variety of languages [English/German by default].  However, I am uncertain
how I notify the server that it should serve me a specific languages'
content.  I've tried specifying various querystring arguments, URL
modifications and altering my browsers accepted language choice, but none
seem to have any effect on the content generated.  How do I tell the OpenCMS
system to spit out the alternate languages for a given content page?

	2.  I see English and German are included by default in the 6.0
distribution.  I also found that I can get Spanish added to the option list
if I install the 5.x localization package, however, the Spanish option is
not included in the preferences dialog of the administration interface [even
though it is available in the content editor].  How do I go about adding
additional content languages [_not_ administrative localizations]?

	Thanks! 
	Ben
