I would do it in the client, even if it meant parsing the query, modifying it, then unparsing it.
This is exactly like changing "To:" to "Zu:" in a mail header. Show that in the client, but make it standard before it goes onto the network. If queries at the Solr/Lucene level are standard, then users with different locale settings could share saved queries. wunder On 8/18/08 2:18 PM, "Pierre Auslaender" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Would that be of any interest to the SOLR / Lucene community, given the > trend to globalisation / regionalisation ?
