Hi, I think this is an important item and appreciate you taking the initiative on it. If you're interested in breaking this up into subtasks then I'm willing to help out. Unfortunately I don't know a second language well enough to help with translation but I can help code :-)
As for the specifics, I think it would make sense to use a similar approach that Apache Jetspeed2 uses for its admin console. You can inspect the src here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/portals/jetspeed-2/trunk/applications/j2-admin/ Specfically: - use org.apache.geronimo.console.xyz.resources for package names - use <PortletName>Resources.properties for the file names - use <PortletName>.[label | msg | error].key for the resource names (this seems to be a mixed bag, though) Also instead of the standalone i18n library I think it would be more strategic to use the JCP standardized tag library v1.1 (which I believe it supercedes). What do you think? Best wishes, Paul On 3/27/06, Sean McCarthy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > We would like to start working on the translation (Yeray and me).
