I believe the way to do this is to depreciate the MessageResources class,

+0, If the class is renamed to Resources then
Resources.getMessages() is more descriptive than Resources.getData().
The word 'Data' adds no more information. The fact that it is
a 'get' says that 'data' will be returned.

+0, Again 'Data' adds no more info, how about 'getStream' ?
