Hello everyone,

we are having some trouble with the language in DSpace (1.8.2 xmlui). The 
supported locales are set to "de, en" and the default locale is "en". In the 
Internet Explorer the default setting for language is always the 
languageCode_countryCode (for German "de_DE") and not the language code itself. 
If you look at {DSpaceURL}?XML one can see that only "de_DE" is transmitted and 
"de" is missing, which is not the case with other browsers (as far as I have 
tested them - chrome, firefox, opera). DSpace does not recognize the "de_DE" as 
"de" and in the case someone uses Internet Explorer with default locale 
settings for Germany, he is presented an English version of our site. When we 
set "de" to be the default locale the same problem occurs the other way around 
(German site presented to not German user).

I tried to fix this by adding the "de_DE" locale to the supported locales and 
provided a copy of the German messages file (messages_de_DE.xml). But the 
system still won't accept it and switches back to the default locale. Does 
anyone know how to handle this?

Thanks in advance and best regards,
Wilko
