To localize your README.md... > TODO: document some practices to make your README.md localizable.

Puppet Forge looks in <module-name>/readmes for README_<locale-id>.md if the browser language is not set to English. It will fallback to the default version if the corresponding non-English version is not found.

For example, the README.md from puppetlabs-mysql gets localized and then goes here:

puppetlabs-mysql/readmes as README_ja_JP.md
