[albatross-users] Internationalization (lookup?), embedding, licensing

[Brad Clements]

Hello albatross users.

There are now 5 non-object-craft members on this list :-)

I'm looking for a nice, small scale web application platform for use in an embedded 
linux box. I've looked at Zope, Twisted, Webware (don't like Cheetah), Skunkweb and 
many other platforms. I think Albatross looks best for my needs.

1. licensing - Looks like BSD style license, is that correct?

2. Embedding - Looks small, that's nice

3. Internationalization - I have to support multiple languages and automatically "pick the 
proper templates" based on the client browser settings.

I think I can get the langauge info from request headers.. 

What I was thinking of doing was using lookup methods for all text.. Then I'd load the 
appropriate macro set into ctx on each request based on the client preferred language.

Does this make sense? Anyone else tackle this problem?

4. Might have to support being an xml-rpc server in the future. I'm assuming I can hook 
into Request processing somewhere.. anyone try this?

Thanks for any thoughts you have.
