Jan Haderka updated MAGNOLIA-900:
---------------------------------
Priority: Major (was: Critical)
While this is certainly important new feature, it is not system critical (i.e.
doesn't cause loss of data or system crash as per definition of critical issue)
> make it possible for end users to localize the GUI
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAGNOLIA-900
> URL: http://jira.magnolia.info/browse/MAGNOLIA-900
> Project: Magnolia
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.0 Beta 1
> Reporter: Boris Kraft
> Assignee: Philipp Bracher
> Fix For: Ideas
>
>
> The new way of putting the strings inside of each module (which in turn is a
> jar in the end) makes it currently close to impossible for end users to
> provide translations.
> We could:
> * provide a different mechanism instead of storing translations inside
> modules (maybe a localization module?)
> * provide documentation so that end users know exactly step by step what to do
> * provide a tool that makes it easy no matter how its done below the surface
> In any case we need it fast. If we make it so hard to translate the GUI, we
> will not get translations. For me that makes it a critical issue as we need
> the translations for the final release.
> Understand that the people doing the translations need to be able to
> * find the file to be translated
> * test the translation
> * provide the file back to us
> Also do the math - if we have 10 modules and 15 languages, *we* have to
> juggle 150 language files.
> Any suggestions?
