Public bug reported:
I discovered that https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-help/ and
https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/ site directories are
available in several different languages, but there is no way to switch
between them from the site itself.
Currently, to access them, you need to manipulate Accept-Language request
header in your browser. In Firefox, it can be done
(1) by editing intl.accept_languages preference at about:config page,
(2) in Preferences->Content->Languages window or
(3) by using an extension like Quick Locale Switcher.
I think it's better practice for multi-language site to provide some
control to select the language. It will make difference when a user is
not sure he/she understands a sentence in his/her current language
correctly and wants to consult the same page in another, or suspects a
translation mistake. It will make checking translations for mistakes on-
line faster and easier.
