Dev - CommonUiLabels.properties - standards for updating?

[Carl Sopchak]

Hi,

I have a need to add some messages (well, at least 1) to
CommonUiLabels.properties, and I notice that there are other language
variations on this file.  Being that French class took me in high school (not
the other way around! ;->), I don't think I'll be able to put the messages in
the other language files in the native toung.  I was wondering if I should
put the English message in the other files, or leave the message Id out, or
something in between.

Thanks for the help,

Carl

Yes put the English ones first.  Then hopefully someone else can help.

Yeah, generally it's best to leave untranslated messages out. In  
other words just add your message to the English file. All messages  
should go into the English files as that is the fall-back (default)  
if nothing more local is found. For the other languages it is  
probably easier for people doing translating to use a property editor  
tool that shows them missing messages than to read through other  
languages and spot the English messages.
