We also would like to be able to create bilingual input forms - either
through i18n and message.properties or via input.forms_locale.xml etc.
Has there been any progress on this? Is a patch available for DSpace
1.8?

Well I have just applied your patch. It works. Thanks!

Yes, I knew it. Thanks.
Have you considered making input-forms.xml 'i18n-able'? Having texts
like 'xmlui.input_forms.authors.label' or
'xmlui.input_forms.authors.hint' translated in messages_LOCALE.xml
would make Manakin more readable, more consistent. Or wouldn't it?
Thanks a lot
