Yes if all the pages show the same functionality and content, only in different languages (as happens in debian.org). No if some pages will show actually a different functionality in different languages. For instance, the pages of a French forum won't be the same as the pages of a German forum, and perhaps in another language there won't be a forum at all. Following your example, a Spanish forum page could have a URL like /node/41812.es Semantically this would imply that I could get /node/41812 as an equivaent in the default locale and /node/41812.it as an Italian equivalent which is not true. Instead /es/node/41812 says that the Spanish website has this page - nothing else. -- Quim Gil - http://desdeamericaconamor.org
