Tonu, If there is an "official" Radiant approach it is as you detailed, with a separate root for each language using the Language Redirect extension which is available here on the "ThirdPartyExtensions" wiki page: http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Thirdparty_Extensions
I have not tested it against any recent builds of Radiant, so I will assume for now it's up to date and working. In addition to this option I wrote a "Language Switch" extension recently for a client and they allowed me to share. While for most cases I am a fan of the multiple roots approach, in this case they really wanted to have a conditional tag to switch out parts of a page or layout to another language without having to manage two separate sites. It's not a particularly refined extension and it turns-off caching for all pages, but at least there is a bit of documentation in the README file :) : http://svn.fn-group.com/radiant_extensions/language_switch Finally, take a look at the mailing list archive for another recent discussion of this topic: http://lists.radiantcms.org/pipermail/radiant/2007-September/thread.html#6356 Good luck!
