I guess that depends on several factors. Here, I have
something more like this:
<root>
<title i18n="main.title"/>
<body>body text</body>
</root>
with somewhere else:
<i18n>
<l10n xml:lang="EN">
<entry name="main.title">Something</entry>
...
</l10n>
<l10n xml:lang="FR">
<entry name="main.title">Quelque chose</entry>
...
</l10n>
</i18n>
I think I described this on the XSL List at Mulberry Tech. a few
months ago, if you're interested.
