Thank you Frankie.

I guess I'm OK with the i18n part of the idea. Not so sure about the
'best practises' to implement, though (that was the general idea of
this post).

But many thanks for the links anyway. Regards,

>> Hello people, I have a question for you.
>>
>> I've been developing (in my head) a multilang, multisite, multiuser
>> blog application, that -at least for me- sounds like a very cool idea.
>> On to the details:
>>
>> The project is actually a group of sister websites dealing with a
>> common subject, localised for different languages/cultures. It's
>> centered around the old "you learn a thing a day" saying, so Authors
>> would be able to post the thing they learned that day on a -usually
>> small- post. Of course, they would have to be able to post in many
>> different languages (initially either English, Slovenian or Spanish).
>>
>> As to URLs, I'd need to support at least the following three schemes:
>>
>>  * Language codes mapped to directories (http://maindomain.com/en/ and
> > http://maindomain.com/sl/ and  http://maindomain.com/es/)
> >  * Language codes mapped to subdomains (http://en.maindomain.com/ and
> > http://sl.maindomain.com/ and http://es.maindomain.com)
> >  * Completely different starting URLs (http://athingaday.com/ and
> > http://nekajnovega.com and httpd://algonuevo.com/
> >
> > As to the post themselves, each different version would have to be
> > aware of its 'sister' posts in other languages, but that's already a
> > template thing I believe.
> >
> > It goes without saying that these multiple localised versions would
