> -Assisting search engines Not quite the same thing, but you might also want to note that anyone with proper configuration access to a web server can make it serve up variants of pages in the user's preferred language, so you might want to consider: - encouraging Maori readers to include mi in their browser language preferences - it will probably have to be first choice for real effect; - providing Google with a Maori translation of their search engine pages (I seem to remember that they take translations from volunteers, although they might need to get someone to independently vet the contents). (There is a down side to language negotiation in that it tends to defeat caching; it is probably best only to negotiate the home page and to negotiate a redirection, rather than the actual content. Please redirect with HTTP not Refresh or Javascript hacks!)
