Apologies if this is an obvious question, but I haven't been able to find an 
answer. Is it possible to change the contents of messages.xml in a DSpace 
instance that's been built from the contents of the binary dspace-x.x.x-release 
file rather than dspace-x.x.x-src-release?

We've deployed a DSpace 1.7.2 instance internally to manage our digital 
archives. When our IT staff put the server up they used the contents of 
dspace-1.7.2-release rather than the source release. I've been doing some basic 
customization by rebranding the Reference theme, changing text in places like 
news-xmlui.xml, and adding our custom metadata schemas to input-forms.xml. I 
used the contents of the src-release as a guide when putting these together.

I moved my theme and updated files to the appropriate locations in the 
[dspace-source] directory and rebuilt DSpace as per the instructions. For the 
most part it all went smoothly, but I couldn't find a location for messages.xml 
in the directory tree. There's no equivalent to the 
dspace-1.7.2-src-release/dspace-xmlui/dspace-xmlui-webapp/src/main/webapp/i18n 
directory, and I couldn't find messages.xml anywhere else.

Is there a way to change the contents of messages.xml in a case like this? 
Specifically, I want to change the footer text in 
xmlui.dri2xhtml.structural.footer-promotional.
