Hi David,

It's a great approach. Count with me in CSS related changes. Just create
the corresponding JIRA ticket and assign it to my JIRA user: bitcoder.

there’s at least some translation going on here, this seems like a good
place to try out solutions.  I haven’t found the translations yet :-)
Provisionally my first idea would be to represent languages as versions:
8.0 is english, 8.0-sp, 8.0-pt, 8.0-ru etc are the other languages.   You
could pick your language in the lower left component-version selector (on
the preview only tomee/8.0 is present)


Not sure how i18n is being provided for TomEE documentation.  We could find
a way to track which parts of a translation need to be updated when the
source document changes by using a localization management tool, like the
po4a [1] perl module.

Besides, there's some interesting proposal [2] to use localization in the
AsciiDoc project coming in next releases.

It was my first impression too when I was reached the TomEE documentation.
I already fixed some weird characters for the documentation.adoc in
TOMEE-2767 [3], I am just waiting for changes to be deployed.
