Christoph Läubrich commented on DERBY-7056:
-------------------------------------------
Thats all true, but it would be better to request dedicated improvements (e.g.
adding version information, make translation artifacts fragements to the main
bundle and so on). BND is a great tool, but it can only offer automatic guesses
about the code, it can't know how the code should behave, so a little bit
tweaking is required here too.
The main point is, that [~rhillegas] can then focus on looking at the existing
code an how to improve it instead of starting from scratch.
