Hello again, stavros
        Another question in relation to the new Othello example.

        I can see that you divided all of the content in localelized 
directories (c_en and c_el). 
        Then, in the pipe line you use the locale to build the path for the 
content, and right after it you translate this locale specific content xhtml 
file :

        <map:match pattern="xml/*.*">
          <map:generate src="c_{../locale}/{1}.{2}"/>
          <map:transform type="i18n">
            <map:parameter name="locale" value="{../locale}"/>
          </map:transform>


        Now - I was wondering why :
        1. You divide the content to localized sub directories. Isn't one 
"xhtml" file, with translation tags enough ? Do you expect that the layout will 
change because of different locale ?
        2. If you already did divide between the directories, why did you use 
the translator transformer ? I mean - each file is already declared as part of 
a specific locale, so why not just have the text embedded ?

        I hope I do not ask dumb questions :)
