Body:
Can you describe what you think the problem would be with this propsed solution
of extending skinconf.xml?
For example:
<i18n lang="en">
<token name="lastPublished" value="Last Published"/>
<token name="copyright" value="Copyright"/>
</i18n>
<i18n lang="??">
<token name="lastPublished" value="???????"/>
<token name="copyright" value="???????"/>
</i18n>
This schema allows any token to be added, so customisation of skins would not
be a problem.

Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FOR-506
Summary: Do not hard-code site-visible message strings in skin files
Type: Improvement
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Minor
Project: Forrest
Components:
Skins (general issues)
Versions:
0.7-dev
Assignee:
Reporter: Pedro I. Sanchez
Created: Thu, 26 May 2005 10:49 AM
Updated: Thu, 26 May 2005 11:50 AM
Environment: N/A
Description:
Text strings like "Copyright", "Published", and "Search" are hardcoded into
skin files like site2xhtml.xsl. When creating web sites in languages other than
English the web developer is forced to create local versions of these skin
files with the appropriated translations.
Instead, the DTD for the skinconf.xml should be improved to allow these
translations to be specified in this file. This would make Forrest much easier
to use.
