Specifically, at least, usergroups/entries.xsl should be added into the language independent directory, and the XML databases can be partially overriden by using the localized ones. Also, usergroups.html can be automatically generated from the databases. IMHO, we should not use "Fill-in-the-blanks Stylesheet" without sufficient content/style separation. Scattering of similar XSLT code limits reuse of data and results in making the maintenance and translation very difficult... I am not against your idea, but worrying about the impact of it on maintainability. -- | Hiroki SATO ----Security_Multipart(Mon_Feb_21_04_23_22_2005_047)-- Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCGOOrTyzT2CeTzy0RAgvHAJ9hKC7a0a3VaTADXEXtJEdO/E8TjwCgi6w0 r35d5n/k7/X2vB9XOxBq0XY= =9omg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ----Security_Multipart(Mon_Feb_21_04_23_22_2005_047)----
