[dna-dev] Re: Blogging topics

[Randall Hauch]

One topic might be the I18n framework.  John did a great job  
(improving some stuff that he worked on with Dan a while back) on  
this, and it really is a great little framework.  I used to hate  
internationalization code, but now it is very easy to work with.

What do you think, John?  You up for it?  Could be a multipart blog,  
too.  Some questions that could be answered:

	• How it's used
	• How it works
	• What are the advantages over other approaches
		• Support for multiple locales (e.g., web application)
		• Caching of localization messages
		• Parameters
		• Updating of localization messages
		• Typed parameters (compile-time)
		• Passing around internationalized messages
		• Extensibility (Localization repository)
		• Testing
	• Why does logging use it (and why debug and trace methods are not  
internationalized)

Thoughts?
