Hi, You can run $ cvs update -d -l french if you have currently no french/ subdirectory, then $ cvs update -d french/language-env Switching to a <package>/<language>/ layout will make translator's life much harder, so I do not like this solution. Maybe the English INFOS files may contain the list of available translations, and a script could parse it to run CVS commands. I will give it a try. Denis
