1. A discussion of storage "best practices" or "recommendations" as it pertains to multi-lingual content would great. I've read numerous articles suggesting that a database might not be the best solution. They tend to recommend XML files instead. But to what extent? All my content? This might lead to an article on using MX's built-in XML tags and functions. 2. Proper use of the SetEncoding() and LS..() functions would be great too, as I've seen situations where the developers weren't really sure what setting to use and when. I.e., how do I know which character set to use in each scenario? 3. Which JVM's are appropriate for use with MX. There seems to be a lot of discussion/confusion as to which JVM version does and doesn't cause headaches with i18n. For example, some have noted that Sun's 1.4.1 JVM breaks certain locales, but 1.4.0 is fine. That sort of summarized distinction would be great to have as a reference. I'm sure there's more, but those three come to mind off the bat.
