Multi-languages, rewrites vs locale determner

 

LSDS 732, Linux, Apache. 

 

Assume we have a primary site and localized sites (off the same branch per the SP manual),. blah.com/en/ and blah.com/es/ 

 

Normally I would just use Apache redirects to /en/ to the main site and /es/ to the localized site. Our SAs are fairly proficient in Apache and that may be easier to maintain. 

 

Is there a specific reason/functionality that I get by using com.interwoven.livesite.runtime.controller.impl.LocaleController controller and dispatchToLocaleSite method ?
