Where should we put application transaltions? (was Re: [xwiki-commits] r3776 - xwiki-platform/core/trunk/src/main/resources)

[Vincent Massol]

Interesting discussion related to this commit below.

2 points:

1) I think application translations shouldn't go in XWiki main JAR

2) At the level of the wiki it's easy to imagine a document holding  
the translations. However as we want each application (blog, search,  
panels, etc) to be independant, we need a solution at the level of  
each applications.

If we have a document for each application, it's going to be too  
painful to have to register each page in the admin.
Thus I think a better solution would be to modify XWikiMessageTool to  
automatically look for documents having a Translation object attached  
to them and to use the content of that object to resource properties.
Only issue is that this Translation class has to exist in all wikis...

Any idea?

Thanks
