Hi

I have enhanced the "redirect" resource

src/resources/redirect/resource-v1.0.2.xml

by introducing the possibility to personalize the redirect. An example 
configuration can be found at

src/realms/from-scratch-realm-template/res-configs/.yanel-rc

Personalized redirect means, that the clickstream of a user is being 
analyzed and based on the clickstream
the preferred language is determined and hence when a user for example 
is accessing the homepage, then the redirect to the preferred language 
is based on the previous user clickstream.

This can make sense for example when a website is supporting only two 
languages, e.g. german and french, but there are also users accessing 
the website with other languages, e.g. italian. Some italian speaking 
users might prefer french and others german, hence when there is no 
previous clickstream available, then there will be a default redirect, 
but as soon as the user will be selecting one or the other language 
explicitely, then the system will be able to learn what is the preferred 
language and use this information for future visits.

Enjoy

Michael
