Hello dev-team,

In forrest 0.7 I noticed the following definition in sitemap.xmap:

   <map:transformer name="i18n" 
src="org.apache.cocoon.transformation.I18nTransformer">
    <catalogues default="common">
      <catalogue id="common" name="CommonMessages" 
location="skins/common/translations"/>
    </catalogues>
    <cache-at-startup>true</cache-at-startup>
  </map:transformer>

Shouldn't the location of the catalogue read as follows to allow for 
changing the project skins directory?

      <catalogue id="common" name="CommonMessages" 
location="{project:skins-dir}common/translations"/>



That is a good point for those creating a customized skin per project.

Exactly. This solves the mystery why changes to a project-local copy of 
the translations in the common skin section won't have any effect. This 
puzzled me for quiet some weeks until I was desperate enough to hunt it 
down.

Althugh sins will be deprecated in a future release a minot changelike 
this should go into the 0.8 release. Please provide a patch via the 
issue tracker and we'll ensure it gets applied.
