Hi all,

Thanks for the recent inputs of Application_x.properties. However, I
now realize that we need more than just a one time contribution.

I think internationalization is a strong point for Wicket, and we
should keep pushing to make this even stronger. It's cool to see that
people from all over the world use it. And I was hoping to leverage
that fact.

What I propose is this:

We start a seperate project in wicket-stuff
(http://wicket-stuff.sf.net) specifically for internationalization.
This project will have:
  - Standard messages for validators and maybe more (some of the
common error messages?). These messages will be in that project so
that they can be easily maintained by all the committers on that
project, and I/ other core devs of Wicket will put them in the main
wicket project regularly.
  - An example that shows off the languages/ variants we have. Much
like FormInput in wicket-examples now, but maybe more complete and
focussed on internationalisation.

For every language that will be in that project, there should be one
'owner'. The owner gets commit rights on wicket-stuff in case he/she
didn't already have that.

Who is interested in contributing to this project? What I have in mind
is pretty small/ low maintenance; besides the initial contribution of
one or two web pages and one or two properties files, there will only
be a fix now and then. We would use this list or wicket-dev to discuss
any topics that arise when working on it.

If you are interested, please reply to this email (or send me an
offline message if you prefer that). If we have enough people that
want to work on this, I'll take the lead and create that project in
wicket-stuff.

Cheers,

Eelco
