The HTML specification suggests that the link element can be used by search engines to find alternate translations of the current page. Some browsers expose the link information on the user interface.
Andrew Cunningham and I wrote a test for this. Here is a summary of the results of some brief testing on mainstream browsers on Windows XP.
Some browsers apply the fonts listed in the user font preferences to the display of HTML Unicode text in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean, depending on the setting of the lang/xml:lang attribute.

I have been rewriting my tools and process for dealing with photos. As a result, pages at http://people.w3.org/rishida/photos/ will be moved down one level into an ‘html’ directory.

The first to move were
http://people.w3.org/rishida/photos/html/0407-copenhagen-1.html and
http://people.w3.org/rishida/photos/html/0407-copenhagen-2.html
I won’t announce others, just implement.
