[jboss-as7-dev] Process for patching localized translation files

[Brian Stansberry]

Hi Manuel,

Can you describe a bit what process we should follow for handling 
community updates to the localized text files in the AS? For example, 
the various LocalDescriptions_fr.properties files.

The files are now in the AS codebase itself, so naturally people are 
going to start sending in patches that directly edit them [1]. But I 
suspect that's not the correct process, and perhaps changes need to go 
through https://translate.jboss.org/ with the person proposing the patch 
signing up and joining the appropriate language team?

If the process isn't as simple as us directly accepting patches via 
github, it would be great to include some comments at the top of each 
file pointing to instructions on how to submit fixes.
