[opencms-dev] Another multi-language question

[Ludwig]

Hi Yves,

thanks for you response!

Yes, one problem is that you have to re-recreate the resources. But in our particular case we have got another problem. What we do is developing a template that will be the basis for 20-30 different sites. Different teams will make slight design changes etc. for each site. It would be unsatisfying for them to repeat all design changes for each language in each of these sites. :-(

So, siblings would be a better option, in our case.

All the best!
Ludwig
