Fair enough - alright, back at shapado and playing with the language settings. It seems shapado does some translating in background, when I type in a question in a given language then it displays possible similar questions without regard to language - same idea here? A question or two about tags, will the site support tags in NL also - for example, lets assume that people ask questions about printing in different languages and each person tags it appropriately for their language. Printing udskrivning Drucken 印刷 druk печать Back at shapado again, actually the diaspora sub-site now - I can for instance select French for the content, all French content is displayed, the tags are all in English, so now I select a tag and this seems to break the language filter..hmm, again might be my lack of knowledge about using the site. I'm just wondering how you see handling this. Would the tag be associated with the language? If one selects 'all languages' then all tags would be displayed?
