Pretty much the same as ResourceBundles (you can convert a Java
ResourceBundle into a gettext Portable Object and vice versa). An
excellent introduction to gettext with PHP:
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/php/2002/06/13/php.html
The reason to try to use gettext instead of ResourceBundles in
this case is that the code will have to coexist with PHP and Perl
code in a shared repository (probably GForge). I want to leverage
as much of the existing infrastructure as possible, and the
easiest way appears to be to write a gettext.cfc which does
pretty much the same as your ResourceBundle.cfc only with a
different input format.
