Hi all,

Now Python has unicode strings ;)  

Did you plan something for non-english documentation support
in your doc production process. I mean, 98% of the doc process
is unchanged, the files are duplicated and some extra LaTeX
packages are required.

Is there already something planned, did you have an idea ?

- put specific source directories with traduction-dependant parts ?
  (this should only affect *.tex in each lib/api/ext... directories
   and perhaps a traduction-dependant .tex specified with a make
   variable ?)

- Let the source tree unchanged, make separate CVS branches for
  traduction variant files ?

I have no other idea, but the first one looks far better than the second one.

        source files ?]
