I've looked into the problem. It looks like there is no unified scheme of
translation files in AppFuse. Every translation file randomly encode in
either Java Properties (\uXXXX encoding) or UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1. The project
on 99translations was created assuming the transcoding is UTF-8 for
everything. 


de=ISO-8859-1
es=Java Properties
fr=ISO-8859-1
it=Java Properties
ko=UTF-8
nl=ASCII
no=ISO-8859-1
pt_BR=ISO-8859-1
pt=UTF-8
tr=UTF-8
zh=UTF-8

So that made the files encoded in UTF-8 work nicely and Java properties
files somewhat work (show \uXXXX) instead of non ASCII characters while
ISO-8859-1 characters upper than 0x80 show funky. 

It is extremely easy to convert the translation files to specific format as
soon as this format is defined. 

It makes sense to me to use Java properties since AppFuse re-uses the same
files for different view technologies. It may be the format that can be
easily supported by any of them. However this is not my call , may be we
should submit a bug report about that to the JIRA.

As for immediate fix I will try to convert all the files to UTF-8 (another
universal solution) and re-upload them.
