> 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.
