I see. But why does it try to find 
org.apache.batik.swing.resources.Messages.class when this class is not 
even in the archive? There is a org.apache.batik.swing.Messages however.
And if i set the locale on the canvas to English, why does it still try 
to retrieve the OS locale message properties (ie german)?

Agreed.

I just like to be a bit more in control of the applet communication 
that's all :) It's not really bad behaviour on the part of the batik 
applet.

Hope this is still somehow batik relevant :)

    You need to read the description of ResourceBundle, one option
is to have classes instead of properties files.

    I would guess that we don't quite properly handle locale, so
setting it on the canvas doesn't carry through the whole system,
we end up just using the 'default' locale for the JVM.
