Hello,

I set up a test instance of 1.6 two month ago. Now I am about to modify it in a 
way to have a localized version. I understood that I can find the localized 
Messages-Files under

<http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-api-lang/trunk/src/main/resources/>

But I bet, you took care to provide a smarter way to get them through a mvn 
command instead of manually downloading them and placing them to where they 
belong. I could not find a hint to the magical mvn command required in the docs 
as well. And I was overwhelmed when poking into the pom.xml in the source 
directory. So please tell me who to get it done by mvn.

I would like the Message files to be updated with each "mvn package" in my root 
directory, which is why downloading them manually seems not to be a smart 
solution. Putting them into the local override directory under 
dspace/modules/jspui/... doesnt seem to be smart either, because ahem ... it is 
meant to be for local overrides and not for default versions (which might be 
updated without notice). 
If I am not fully mistaken, localized Messages files were part of the standard 
mvn build process during the 1.5 line of releases. I modified my dspace.cfg to 
contain my preferred language settings and ran "mvn package" in the source 
directory and "ant update" in the target directory again, hoping that mvn would 
be smart enough to find out about the Messages files required according to my 
settings - no luck.

I started using a gzipped release version of DSpace, then switched to the 
src-release. But it contains essentially the same six modules within 
dspace/modules or am I completely mistaken in my perception of where to look 
for the language module? I also tried to find the proper place for the whole 
dspace-api-lang directory in my dspace source directory, which seems a bit 
tricky to me as my dspace source directory seems to be the same as

<http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/trunk/>

but the dspace-api-lang folder ist not placed within dspace/trunk but in the 
folder modules two levels upward from there. Should I get the whole tree using 
svn instead of downloading the src-release, then run the mvn package, ant 
update sequence? Thanks for any hints about how to install the localized 
version the smart way. I disgust to do things manually that can be done in a 
more magical way.

Bye, Christian
