+
+<para>This parameter defines a list of lang values
+to search among to resolve olinks.
+</para>
+
+<para>Normally an olink tries to resolve to a document in the same
+language as the olink itself.  The language of an olink
+is determined by its nearest ancestor element with a
+<sgmltag class="attribute">lang</sgmltag> attribute, otherwise the
+value of the <parameter>l10n.gentext.default.lang</parameter>
+parameter.
+</para>
+
+<para>An olink database can contain target data for the same
+document in multiple languages.  Each set of data has the
+same value for the <sgmltag>targetdoc</sgmltag> attribute in
+the <sgmltag>document</sgmltag> element in the database, but with a 
+different <sgmltag>lang</sgmltag> attribute value.
+</para>
+
+<para>When an olink is being resolved, the target is first
+sought in the document with the same language as the olink.
+If no match is found there, then this parameter is consulted
+for additional languages to try.</para>
+
+<para>The <parameter>olink.lang.fallback.sequence</parameter>
+must be a whitespace separated list of lang values to
+try.  The first one with a match in the olink database is used.
+The default value is empty.</para>
+
+<para>For example, a document might be written in German
+and contain an olink with
+<literal>targetdoc="adminguide"</literal>.
+When the document is processed, the processor
+first looks for a target dataset in the
+olink database starting with:</para>
+
+<literallayout><literal>&lt;document targetdoc="adminguide" lang="de"&gt;</literal>.
+</literallayout>
+
+<para>If there is no such element, then the
+<parameter>olink.lang.fallback.sequence</parameter> 
+parameter is consulted.
+If its value is, for example, <quote>fr en</quote>, then the processor next
+looks for <literal>targetdoc="adminguide" lang="fr"</literal>, and
+then for <literal>targetdoc="adminguide" lang="en"</literal>.
+If there is still no match, it looks for
+<literal>targetdoc="adminguide"</literal> with no
+lang attribute.
+</para>
+
+<para>This parameter is useful when a set of documents is only
+partially translated, or is in the process of being translated.  
+If a target of an olink has not yet been translated, then this
+parameter permits the processor to look for the document in
+other languages.  This assumes the reader would rather have
+a link to a document in a different language than to have
+a broken link.
