CentOS docs - Oct 2010 - Automated listing of translations on each wiki page

Dear all,

This is a continuation of the discussion on "Link to Chinese translation 
in Wiki frontpage" dated 7 May 2009.

To re-cap, I have suggested that the patch in 
http://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/ThisPageInOtherLanguages can be used to 
automatically generate links to translated pages at bottom right of the 
wiki panel.  In addition, I have proposed that the use of a dictionary 
to look for translated page names should be dropped from the patch, 
since our wiki strictly uses locale prefixes to label translated pages.

To that end, I have cooked up the proposed patch targeted for MoinMoin 
1.5.9 (available in CentOS 5.5).  I have uploaded the patch to 
http://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/ThisPageInOtherLanguages?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=simpler.patch
.  It is also attached here.

I sincerely hope that the patch can be applied to the official CentOS 
wiki, thereby making all translated pages a lot more more accessible to 
the public.

Regards,
Timothy Lee
