From Agaric's soon-to-be-obsolete-contributions department, here's a patch that makes panels used for showing nodes (as opposed to blocks, views, and custom) play well with Internationalization package's translation module. It applies to content_types/node.inc (run patch < panels_i18n_translated_node_compatibility.patch from in the panels/ directory).

It picks the language currently in use if available, and the default language if not. (Note to self: see what happens if default language doesn't for a node.)

Detail and background here:

We don't expect this to get into Drupal 5.x-1 branch even if there is another release, but if you absolutely must make a multilingual site before the i18n-ized Drupal 6 and the further wizardized Panels 2 are both ready, this might help.

It is correct that this won't make it into Panels 1, simply because I am not doing further work on Panels 1 at all; however, because this is important I will not do my usual schtick of closing the issue, but instead will leave it in this patch state so that people can find it.

Thanks, It's exactly what I'm looking for! Please give this patch more visibility or implement it in 5.x version.
