RE: [jira] Created: (OFBIZ-385) Externalize strings for translation.
. Normalize existing keys.
2 Corrections on stuff below.
1. Strings taken out are string that is one or more valid word that
contains a white space. The rest of the rules hold
2.
Strings are places one of 4 files
1. Exception.properties -- exception error messages
2. Message.properties -- general messages
3. UndefContext.properties -- I cannot derive the context
4. Error.properties -- Debug log messages
