[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

First on serving the internationalized website:

The following changes to maintenance:berlin redirect requests for old
URLs properly *only for non-HTTPS* in local testing on a vm-image.  I
assume the same will work when added for the HTTPS location, though
perhaps the line "set_from_accept_language $lang en de;" cannot or
need not be duplicated for both non-HTTPS and HTTPS.  I hope the
changes are compatible with the manual and cookbook URLs.  The changes
would better be tested more but I do not know how.

I attach a complete patch that can only be used for testing on a local
VM.  For testing, I perform the following steps:

cd ~/git/maintenance/hydra/
GUILE_LOAD_PATH=$(readlink -f ~/git/maintenance/hydra/modules):$GUILE_LOAD_PATH guix system vm-image --image-size=14G berlin.scm --fallback
cp /gnu/store/mm000wdzkzrvalg09jxk0y6nhi9c4iai-qemu-image berlin1.img
guix gc -D /gnu/store/mm000wdzkzrvalg09jxk0y6nhi9c4iai-qemu-image
chmod +w berlin1.img
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm berlin1.img -m 2048 -nic tap,ifname=tap0,script=no,downscript=no

Note that I use NetworkManager with dnsmasq for a tap0 host-to-guest
network connection as specified in the Guix manual.

Second, unrelated to serving the website:

I also noticed that Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 cannot display the
new accessible dropdowns on https://guix.gnu.org/.i18n/en.  Do we
care?  Perhaps the use of CSS z-index causes the problems.  The
previous dropdowns used display: none; which made the dropdowns
not-keyboard navigable.

Regards,
Florian
