I'm not familiar with Zanata mechanism but I guess the resource name 'messages_en' will be considered as a base name so generated files would be like 'message_en_ja_JP.properties'. (I'm not sure...)

Looking at pom.xml,

https://github.com/droolsjbpm/dashboard-builder/blob/master/pom.xml#L239

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.zanata</groupId>
                <artifactId>zanata-maven-plugin</artifactId>
              <configuration>
                <includes>**/*_en.properties</includes><!-- TODO Remove (standardize on **/*Constants.properties) -->
              </configuration>
            </plugin>

the files will be likely renamed in the future.

According to Sean's comment,

http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jboss-l10n/2013-July/000067.html

renaming resouce files would require some efforts on project maintainer side ('davidredhat' ... I guess David Gutierrez) but it wouldn't lose translation so I think it's okay to go ahead.

Let us know if you have any thought on this.

Regards,
Toshiya

Hi all,

Are there any possible problems that might arise because of this in the future?

I'd say it's safe to proceed with the translation for dashbuilder, David will review all the resources when he is back from PTO.

Best regards,
Pedro
