Forum OpenACS Improvement Proposals (TIPs): Re: TIP #66: (Proposed) Standards for Internationalizing Content

Hi Jim,

I think its possible to have one translation to be deleted.  There will be cases that a site will just get a common base of content and use its own translated content on its own.  So I believe we can't discount that its possible to delete the original item where the translation came from.

That is why I and Dave is asking to make things more of peer level rather than parent child relationship.  This way when the original item is deleted the remaining translation can still find its peers.

I re-proposed this.  I changed code item #3 to avoid the implementation detail, with the intent (as discussed) that we all formalize our agreement on all of the other points, and then look at specific implementations before committing OpenACS to that level of detail.
