To brief/cap/sum the discussion (any preferable term?):
A. We CAN do auto-redirection from the homepage (only?), using
Javascript, to on'es browser default locale language (eg. he-IL would
redirect to the Hebrew site).
Sure, and if the user is browsing with disabled JS then it's simply not
redirecting and he could choose via the drop-down list on top right.
B. En, de, pt, lt, and he websites are mature, updated regularly, follow
the look-and-feel of the main website, and their teams declared they
want to join this auto-redirection feature. If other websites would like
auto-redirection, and is active, reply to this discussion, and update
this list by adding your website.
This means to split-up that some languages get a redirecting and some
not? Hm, I don't like this idea of special treatment.
+ I'd like to add that the [Java]script should include a cookie, to save
one's last language preference, so the default auto-detected browser
locale wouldn't be used be default on the next visit, or refresh.
Yes, nice comfort feature. But would make the script more complex.
Sorry, but I still don't think that an automatic redirecting on our
initial homepage is a good idea. That would mean the user is never able
to go to another webpage with redirection as it would result again in
another immediate redirection.
