[Zope-dev] Interface localization: zzLocale 0-0-4a release

[Yves-Eric Martin]

    Hello,

    Since the SkinnableAndLocalizable project is on hold, and since
people here in Japan and other non-english speaking countries have
repeatedly expressed their wish for localized versions of Zope, I
decided to continue zzLocale development and turn it into an actually
usable Product. Here is a big step towards it:


    zzLocale release 0-0-4a. zzLocale is a Zope locale support Product
that provides a framework for Zope interface internationalization.


    Main new features are:

o New failover code that should break less stuff (previous version broke
    various Products, like ZGadflyDA or LoginManager. All reported
    broken Products are now working)
o Localization of management tabs
o Localization of buttons (all should work now).
o Fixed hideous bug that prevented uninstall

    Altogether, this should hopefully make this version actually usable:
a few things are still not internationalized (like MessageDialogs), but
it should *work*. Please email me if you can still find things that
break when using zzLocale.

    Note that no actual localization file is provided with this release.
Language packs will be made available as we receive translations. (If
you have a few hours to kill, how about translating Zope into your
mother tongue (if it is not English)? ;) ).


Cheers,
