[publican-list] conditionally exclude a paragraph

[Joshua Wulf]

== The brute force method ==


<section lang="de-DE" lang="es-ES" lang="pt-BR" ...>
    <title>The title</title>
    ...
</section>


== Using Condition ==

You could also use "condition" [1], although it requires to be manually
switched when changing between en-US and non-en-US.

http://rlandmann.fedorapeople.org/pug/sect-Users_Guide-Conditional_tagging.html

So:

<section condition="non-EN">
    <title>The title</title>
    ...
</section>


and then in publican.cfg you set

condition: non-EN

When building non-en-US languages.

== Scripting Condition ==

You could automate the switching by calling a shellscript that sets this
depending on the lang that you are building. So:

mypublicanbuild.sh

if 'en-US' in langs[] then write 'condition: EN' to publican.cfg
else
  write 'condition: non-EN' to publican.cfg

== Publican RFE? Langs as Conditions ==

Maybe it would be useful if publican exposed the langs argument as an
array of 'condition's? Then it would be automatic.
