Julian,
I can answer one of the questions you pose....
The language and country values are, as noted in the APM, supposed to follow
the resource bundle naming pattern. Resource
bundles use the 2 character ISO language and country codes.
I am curious myself to find out how to indicate to the servlet
engine that a JSP page is localized, and also how to provide the Locale for
which I desire the relevant JSP page.
As for your observation that the JSP 1.1 spec from Sun doesn't
appear to mention this.... It is rather perplexing isn't it. I too spent a
while trying to find the reference in the Spec - it
doesn't appear to be there.
