Totally awesome blog, Paul.  I've heard about it before but haven't had
the chance to stop by.  


Something I need to take some serious time to get into, as it looks like
there's buckets of opportunity in the Far East right now.  Getting more
and more work from over there.  CFMX is an absolute Godsend in this
regard.

thanks matt but i'm more of a student of i18n. and what i meant by
resourceBundles (rb) was more java style--the java world has been at
this at
lot longer than any of us, so maybe we should take a cue from them.
with
most i18n apps managing translations becomes a huge, costly pain. so a
large
number of decent tools have evolved over time to help with this (like
IBM's
rbManager tool, there a bunch of others, i suppose i should do a review
someday).  java rb's use escaped ansi to hold unicode text
(loatianFive=\u0ED5), so its most efficient to use java classes for
this.
the other benefit is that this automagically help manage rb locale
files. if
you ask for en_CA locale rb & it doesn't yet exist, the java class will
search for the next best thing (plain en locale).

i yakked about this on my blog:
