[VOTE] Where to put i18n stuff
Hello developers,
To implement the i18n stuff at least for the cms ui we need to decide
where to put dict files and the 18ntranformer.
First ideas on irc were:
1.) The dict files should go to config/i18n
2.) The i18n transformer gets defined in global-sitemap.xmap
+1 for the proposals.

Simple answer:
In your XML / XSLT, you use keys:
<i18n:text>translate_this</i18n:text>
Depending on a locale string you pass as a parameter,
the I18nTransformer translates this into:
a) übersetze dies (de)
b) translate this (en)
The translations are defined in catalog files.

Hi,
Probably a stupid question (I don't have experience with i18n), but does
it somehow work with the XML Source(s) of a transformation?
thanks,

He/she can, but it's not that obvious ...
I see the resources directory rather as a repository
of "things" provided by 3rd parties (like W3C schemas
etc.) which are not meant to be manipulated.

In the definition of the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard
(http://www.pathname.com/fhs/) they are resources as they are under
/usr/share/. So I'd vote for resources/i18n.
+1 for resources/i18n.

The question is whether we consider these things as
configurations or resources. If they are meant to be
tweaked by integrators (I think so), they should go
into config. So:
+1 for config/i18n
> 2.) The i18n transformer gets defined in global-sitemap.xmap
+1

+1 on both
i am not familiar with the dict details, but it should be possible to
extend the core dict with publication specific ones. not sure what the
best approach would be.
