Multilingualize News Section of Fink Website

News editors and translators,

I've been testing on my machine to make the news section of Fink 
website to multilingual. Please give me a comment about my plan.

It is important to note that news/news.rdf will not be affected by 
this.news.rdf will still be generated, as well as news.en.rdf. They are 
identical. news/index.php and news/news.inc use phpLang to get the 
correct news/index.*.php and news.*.inc.

News editors: Make sure to edit news/news.en.xml, not news/news.xml.  
Please add newsitem to the files of all the languages. This will let 
the users of other languages see the news in English. It can be done 
automatically from English (zero) file during make process, but that is 
a next step.

Translators: The same as other XML based files. Just translate 
news.*.xml and add your language in Makefile before make; make install. 
This will put news.*.inc, news.*.rdf and index.*.php into web/news.

If you want to test the new scheme, just cvs update the XML tree and 
get Makefile from experimental/babayoshihiko/news/Makefile and put it 
into xml/news/.
