13450	Can django's i18n internationalization middleware offer language selection by URL?	benoitcsirois	nobody	"Django's current internationalization framework allows only the project's default language to be indexed by search engines, because a single URL is only indexed in one language in the search engine.

Would it be possible to implement a www.example.com/LANG/app type of URL handling in django's internationalization framework?

I have been using something similar, which someone published (forget where I found it, see attached file for middleware), but it breaks django's reverse url lookup, unless I specify urls with a (?P<lang>(\w\w)) at the beginning... thus resulting in a useless ""lang"" parameter passed-on to views.

Can a simpler, more integrated solution be implemented?"		closed	Internationalization	1.1		wontfix	i18n internationalization seo languages urls		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
