Dirk, I just finished the code to get it in beta status. I'm going to 
bed now but first thing in the morning I have a few clean-up type of 
things I need to do and I'll email you the code.

Works pretty slick so far.  I just need to nail down the file stuff with 
you (e.g. if you specify en-gb and it doesn't exist you get en).  Want 
to make sure I have all the rules right to stay in good light with all 
my international buddies ;-)
