german/french localization doesn't compile out of box

           Summary: german/french localization doesn't compile out of box
           Product: Jetspeed
           Version: 1.3a1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Distribution
        AssignedTo: jetspeed-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bschneider@vecna.com


The localization files that contain String literals with iso-8859-1 "special"
characters (German umlauts, etc.) don't compile with the default Sun javac
options. They get "Error: The value of this "String" literal is invalid. Perhaps
it contains a bad escape sequence?"

I got around this by editing build.xml and adding "encoding="iso-8859-1"" as an
option to the javac command.

I'm using Sun JDK 1.3.0 on Linux.

(Side note: the shell scripts all unzipped as MS-DOS text, which caused my bash
to choke for some reason.)
