Yes, but there are cases, where automatic language selection does not work. In particular, I want most pages in German, but definitely not lilypond.org (since all commands are in English anyway, having the documentat in a different language is counter-productive). So some system-wide language preference don't work in my case... > > , using > > subdomains (e.g. de.lilypond.org/web/about) or virtual subdirs > > (lilypond.org/fr/web/about) handled by mod_rewrite or other Apache > > plugins?

That the lilypond server always forces the German version upon me. Of course, I want amazon, ebay, etc. in German, but for the Lilypond docs, German is useless, because I mostly don't know the proper German terms. So, I would like to see the Lilypond documentation only in English. I have no problem if I end up with the German index.de.html and then have to go the the English index.html. The problem is that all the links (also in the English version ) point to the file names without the .html, so whenever I click anywhere, I'll again end up with the German version again. Unfortunately, not every browser supports per-domain setting of the language preferences... (and I really want/need the German setting for all other web pages).
