Mephisto_i18n update

Just a quick heads up on the status of this for those who are interested.

Though it may seem that this project has died from lack of activity, I am still very much maintaining this project and have been adding fixes and tweaks on and off during the last few months.

In fact, I’ve just committed a couple of fixes:

  • Correct subdomain parsing for non-multisite mephisto instances (Bug was introduced when adding multisite support)
  • Making the dynamic i18n link switcher drop method handle paged articles whose section is the home section.

The future status of this project is basically pending a rewrite of globalize. I had already written the next version of globalize (currently stored in a branch) with support for rfc4646 but with the new rails i18n api talks going on, I’m waiting for these to conclude and get the rewrite for globalize 2 done before updating this plugin for that new version.

So….

To all those currently/thinking of using the plugin, feel free to bug me with questions, bug reports and help. I’m still commited to maintaining this.

Btw, the latest version in trunk also has support for plugin template handlers, so you can now use erb, haml or whatever else takes your fancy.
