Hi Danijel,
AFAIU this should work as follows:
1. NetBeans is built as a set of modules.
2. Each module has a "manifest.mf" file (see [1] for an example)
3. Some of these files have an entry named
"OpenIDE-Module-Localizing-Bundle" (see [2] for an example)
4. This means that the module has a "localizing bundle" which is a Java
bundle (properties file) such as [3] that you have to localize.
5. The NetBeans source code has a "l10n-kit" Ant task that you can run
to collect and group these localizing bundles.
5.1.- Clone the Apache NetBeans repo as in "Building from source" in [4].
5.2.- Run "ant l10n-kit" there. You should have the english version of
the kit to localize to your preferred language.
I think it's ages since we last run "l10n-kit", so it could be it
doesn't run well for you. If so please either
6.a) Try to send us a PR with improvements.
6.b) Open a ticket detailing the problem.
Hope this helps,
Antonio

Greetings all!
We have interest in localizing the platform to Slovenian language and we came
to a hold on how to continue. We managed to checkout
https://github.com/apache/netbeans-l10n build and prepare a few projects
(Italian, Polish) for which there were already some translation sources but we
are lost from where to get the English bundles that we would use as a base for
our Slovenian translation. Currently most of info on how to setup I got from
discussion from last year which we found here
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@netbeans.apache.org/msg08390.html but as there
is no source localization files in netbeans-l10n-zip/src/ for English we don't
know what to use as a template for Slovenian language translations.
Best regards!
