Heaven, please no URLs like that.

In fact I would propose, for a future iteration perhaps, to put each 
file in a separate directory and name them index.lang.{html,php} and 
only publish the directory based URLs.  Compare the links at

http://www.debian.org/
http://www.kde.org/
http://www.gnome.org/

All the URLs are very readable and don't expose implementation details.
