[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (OFBIZ-1442) Add ability to use XML
property files for locale-specific properties

Jeroen,
The objective of getting XML file support into OFBiz was to move away from using *.properties files - which required special translation tools. It is my understanding that there is no translation tool needed when working with UTF-8 XML files.
The latest revision supports both the OFBiz custom XML file format and the standard java XML file format.
While having multiple translations in the same file seems odd at first, when you look at one you can see the advantage - missing property translations become obvious.
