|
as we've been talking about metadata for documents referenced in the LDP,
|
|
we too have come across the language issue. the problem in this discussion
|
|
is that several countries have several languages. whilst one might expect
|
|
say english at www.uk, you might also expect to find documents in welsh
|
|
there too. the ids are one way to show a local site with, perhaps, special
|
|
needs of people in that location, and, again perhaps, better connectivity
|
|
(more reliable and faster) access for folks close by.
|
|
|
|
but frankly as Paul (the other Paul) has begun to show, this plan is
|
|
flawed all the way round (but better than nothing at all). still better to
|
|
have something like mirrorwatch to show you which sites are virtually
|
|
close to solve the connectivity question, say, or to have document-related
|
|
metadata to tell you if a document is in a specific language and, via
|
|
another tag, whether the document has localized information. so that you
|
|
could find a french language document dealing with north african issues
|
|
perhaps on a not very busy but only a few hops away canadian mirror.
