------------------------------------
Summary: Fix problems in English messages disclosed by a
localization audit.
Key: DERBY-5879
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5879
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 10.10.0.0
Reporter: Rick Hillegas
The team which is localizing the 10.9 messages would like to audit our existing
messages to ensure that they are easy to translate. A quick glance at their
audit results shows many issues in the following categories:
1) Multi-line messages whose formatting confuses the translators. Translators
tend to be language experts and not experts in the arcana of how Java
properties files are formatted. I am hoping that these issues can be addressed
by simply prefixing the multi-line messages with comments, explaining the
arcane formatting.
2) Grammar, punctuation, and capitalization problems. I think we should just
clean these up.
I am filing this issue as a place to hold patches which address issues raised
by the localization audit.
