There is a "How Django discovers language preference" section in the translation deplomyment document http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/topics/i18n/deployment/ that describes the workflow followed to discover per user preferences. That document is linked from the main internationalization page with the following paragraph: "For system administrators/final users setting up internationalized apps or developers integrating third party apps: Deployment of translations." If you think there is a better place for this part of the docs please feel free to suggest it. I'm interested in cases as yours (you started this thread with "despite reading round and round in circles in the documentation, I am completely baffled about localisation and how it works") so we can improve the organization of the i18n docs. > The middleware allows the pages to be localised to the browser's > locale, although there are still a number of strange behaviours > > [...] > > Have I got this right? > Where do I/we go from here? > Is there a better forum for this? > Can I help improve things by writing bug reports? enhancements > requests? patches? documentation? or taking part in discussions? > Sorry for the late reply, I've had this message in draft for almost a week. I will try to answer to the rest of your concerns after I digest and research them in the following days. Thanks for taking the time to describe and yes please if you can open tickets for the issues you identified. although some of them might have been already reported, you can search them in our Trac installation filtering by Component = Internationalization.
