[sword-devel] i18n of sword website

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Joachim,
	I think what you did with bibletime.info is really great.  I'm not sure 
how much of the technical framework we'd be willing to use on crosswire, 
but the concepts are awesome.  I'd really like to get some more detailed 
explanations of your implementation and see if we can come up with a jsp 
solution.  I'll do some research on jsp i18n, as well, and let you know 
what I find.

	-Troy.
