As I suspected when I started this discussion about content negotiation, it is not proving easy to get all the mirrors to switch to using it. It isn't that anyone has refused, it's just that I've only received 3 responses so far and there are 9 mirrors. As it's been almost a week, I'll send more

I am somehow reluctant to believe that CN will bring that much trouble for anyone. We are propably ignoring anyone who doesn't run apache, but that's the minority;) I don't think anyone will object. It's simply getting their attention long enough to get them to make the

There are some people who feel content negotiation should be used for every page (I'm not sure why. Once CN has you using your preferred language, what difference does it make). I'd like their comments on this scheme (repeated below). It should be used for every page. A WWW site

Pardon me for being dense, but it is not any worse than the current situation, is it? I mean, we have the default language at the moment. Though we can't mandate content negotiation on mirror servers, we can suggest that they do so; don't most modern servers support CN quite easily

Aaargh. This content negotiation (CN) has some annoying quirks. After re-reading the apache manual it appears we don't have a lot of choice. from the apache manual: The effect of MultiViews is as follows: if the server receives a request for /some/dir/foo, if /some/dir has MultiViews enabled

. That way, mirrors will pick up all the .html.langs and _also_ .html (the English version). 1. If a user references .html.lang, all will work as planned. 2. If he references .html, and the mirror does content-negotiation, he will get the language he wants
