It was, news/ cannot be found because it's above where the pages expect to 
find it.

The svn location is not where the scripts expect to find news/ and to get it 
to work on my system, I've had to edit the variables to step up to the parent 
folder (in each supported language):
 <?php
-  # for englsih, the antive and lat newspatch are identical
-  $native_newspath  =  "news/";
-  $alt_newspath  =  "news/";
+  # for english, the native and alt newspatch are identical
+  $native_newspath  =  "../news/";
+  $alt_newspath  =  "../news/";

Maybe we need a symlink in each translated subdirectory :
en/news -> news/ etc. but that would require some kind of svn ignore and 
script setup / readme. 

How much leeway do we have over filesystem paths?

Once committed, are changes to the svn files going to be mirrored on 
gnucash.org? If so, there's something different in the directory tree.

Also, is there some kind of top level script on the current site that is 
missing from svn? http://virtualhostname/ currently gives a directory listing 
and the content appear doesn't appear until you select a language. Presumably 
there's either a symlink to en/index.phtml or some kind of language detection 
script?
