Hi. I'd like to propose to deprecate the Products.PageTemplates.GlobalTranslationService module and all custom translation handling from Products.Five. Rationale: In order to bring zope.i18n translation handling to the masses, some backwards compatibility code for PlacelessTranslationService and Localizer has been added to Five. Nowadays PlacelessTranslationService trunk doesn't need any of this BBB support anymore and everyone else has switched to using direct zope.i18n translations, making the BBB code unnecessary. This will remove another difference in the Zope2 PageTemplates Expression context moving them closer to the zope.tales implementation. Implementation: Deprecation warnings will be added and the code marked for deletion in two releases with a minimum of a 12 month timespan. Opinions, comments? Hanno
