You're right, the UPGRADE.txt file is wrong, apologies. Another way to 
type it:

 <dtml-with "locale.folder"><dtml-var logo></dtml-with>

If you prefer you also can create a local attribute named "logo" and 
copy each
logo from "Localizer/<lang>/logo" to "locale/logo_<lang>", then you could
type:

 <dtml-with locale><dtml-var logo></dtml-with>


I've fixed the UPGRADE.txt file (and another bug related to cookies) and 
uploaded
the tgz to SourceForge. People that are using Localizer 0.8.1 should 
download the
new "tgz" (if you need changeLanguage*). Apologies.


Gari, what do you think about the new LocalFolder meta type, compared 
with the
old way to do it?

SELECTED_LANGUAGE is an undocumented (and dirty) feature that I think only
you know and use. In the CVS it has been completely removed.

In your case I recommend to use the CVS, then you'll be able to type:

  <dtml-unless 
"USER_PREF_LANGUAGES.select_language(get_available_languages())">
     <dtml-var "gettext('Sorry, but we don't have this page in your 
language')">
  </dtml-unless>

However, this is not the best thing, I'll probably implement a better 
solution
when I figure it out.

Another advantage (for you) to moving to the CVS is that it gives you more
power to change "USER_PREF_LANGUAGES", so you'll be able to implement,
for example "possitive discrimination of a given language".

Another advantage (for me) is that I'll get feedback to know wether the 
new changes
are in the right direction ;-)
