[Zope-PTK] SearchableText and Localization

[Alexandre Ratti]

Hello Magnus,


If you want to localize the core Zope app, you may want to take a look at 
the ZIP (Zope Internationalization Project) list archives. The ZIP list 
info page is there: <http://www.eevolute.com/mailman/listinfo/zip>.

Some time ago we discussed decoupling localizable strings from the Python 
code. At best, all localizable strings would need to be stored in external 
"resource" files for easy translation. Adding new languages would then be a 
very simple matter.

As for ZopePTK I haven't installed it yet.

I am interested in localizing Zope into French. Feel free to get in touch 
with me or to discuss your plans on the ZIP list (zip@eevolute.com).


Cheers.

Alexandre
