It is. However. Mirrors are allowed to set default languages since there are whole craploads of people that don't speak English, and forcing English on people is stupid. In the case of the mirror in Spain, they do set Spanish as their default language, logically, as most people from Spain would be capable of understanding Spanish rather then English. Makes sense? We then further do several of other checks so if you do wish to see the documentation in say Japanese then you simply select that language from the language dropdown on every single documentation page. The system then remembers your choice and will serve you Japanese in the future. The same happens if you go to php.net/my and tell us your language preference. Or when your browser tells us you really want to see certain language. -Hannes -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
