I notice that we have currently a problem with duplicated labels in different
applications.
Take
<value xml:lang="en">Estimated Start Date</value>
for instance
It was certainly present in
ManufacturingUiLabels.xml
before any other files. But it's now also present in
WorkEffortUiLabels.xml
ProjectMgrUiLabels.xml
Bruno has proposed a python script to deal with that (and other issues) in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1698 but
there is currently some problems with it. I think it's possible to amend and will try it. I don't know anything about python, but it
does not look like a challenge.
Anyway, the point of this mail is to try to make aware developers about this kind of issues. But, as I know well it's a lot of
tedious work to identify duplicate labels, I guess the best would be ro run, from time to time, Bruno's script as soon as it will be
safe.
BTW I think I will close OFBIZ-1698 (see my last comment) and open a new one for duplicate labels only, if there are any concerns
about closing of course.
Any other ideas ?

PS : Though as Java is the primary language used in OFBiz we could convert the script to a Java service which could be run async, or
at will. Then we could have more manpower around this issue, WDYT ?
