i18n static pages

I am internationalizing an app. It has static pages. Some of it is GWT.

  however

The first step is to have the static pages and I hope to use something like Apache's MultiViews language negotiation.

Is that the way to go?

What should I do?

Hi Gary,
Here is my view and we could figure out the details in AIFA group
discussion.
* GWT has i18n guide :    * http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideI18n.html 
 * http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/i18n.html*
for static pages, we could have the servlet to do language negotiating
and redirect to language specific subpath. We could add options on top
bar for language selection to override negotiation result.   * first
step is to organize folder structures to store those static pages in
language category.  * servlet/jsp/java also have mature i18n
mechanism and would work in App Engine.

In short term, Chrome browser have the built-in translator (using
google translate) for web pages and that could be used.

I was dragging my feet partly to see if ANYONE other than you and I had something to say.

I'll follow up in the ai4a forum.
