> Why is your blog suddenly in German?!

I was asked that question twice after I posted [two](/2007/11/06/demonstration-gegen-vorratsdatenspeicherung) [articles](/2007/11/07/medienecho-zur-demonstration) in [German](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_language). The answer, of course, is that it isn’t. My blog will remain mostly English for the foreseeable future. But those two articles were about something that is mostly of interest to Germans (new data retention laws pushed through parliament by the government).

I still intend to start blogging bilingually. However, WordPress doesn’t really provide the facilities for this. I have some ideas to work around those limitations, but they involve writing a new WordPress theme… and when I see (http://www.php.net) I get headaches.
