It's an interesting problem. Here's what you can do without any
modifications to Jetspeed:
1. Create your model psml.
2. Clone it for each language.
3. Customize portlet titles for each language.
All of the above can be done using the Psml Browser when logged on as admin.
Now for the real solution (or one of them):
1. In registry, for localized portlets, instead of title use something like
"$l10.PORTLET_TITLE_STRING".
2. Enhance JetspeedTool with method <public String localize(RunData data,
String value_to_localize)>. This method will localize everything prefixed
with "$l10n". Or write your own pull tool.
3. Modify jetspeed.vm to say:
$jetspeed.localize($data,$portlet_instance.Title)
... instead of ...
$portlet_instance.Title
4. Localize the portlet title in portlet customizer using the same method
("current_title" in customizer-portlet.vm):
<input type="text" name="current_title"
value="$jetspeed.localize($data,$current_title)" size="50">
I have not tried this so there may something I haven't thought of. But
theoretically, it should work.
