Alice - You wrote <snip>In Canada we have an added handicap... those impossibly long and non-meaningful-to-the-user URLs also have to bilingual (English & French). The Canadian government wants meaningful URLs in both languages, and we found we could do this with Microsoft CMS 2001.</snip>
Does this mean you have to have both the English AND French versions of the URL ALL IN ONE URL (emphasis, not shouting), or just have a French URL when the site is rendered in French and an English URL when the site is rendered in English? Given the level of bureaucracy in most governments, I would not be surprised if it was the former.
