I have a patch ready that allows translation: - - added a new directory build/entities/l10n - - moved translatable entities from build/entities/common.ent to build/entities/l10n/master.ent - - included code in buildone.sh that will look for a file build/entities/l10n/<lang>.ent and include that _before_ the master.ent The next question is: what entities do we need? I have created a proposal that gives a more general setup and allows a gradual transition by not changing existing entities. I would appreciate any comments and suggestions for improvement or additions.
