[opencms-dev] Multilingual sites - Browser's AcceptedLanguages

[Sebastian Himberger]

Hi,

maybe we should extend the OpenCms properties with an "isMultilanguage" 
,"isTranslateale" or "isLocaleAware flag and also change the property 
dialog to respect this flag? Would this be an Option? I would be willing 
to help implementing this.

best regards
Sebastian
