This has come up repeatedly, and it is unlikely that rails' core will be localised. We only want something there which fits most cases, most of the time. The fact that there are multiple competing implementations and approaches for localising rails applications indicates that there isn't a clear best-practise here yet. I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough, I don't want to find a way of localizing rails applications but only localizing the core 'messages'. I fully agree with you Koz, there isn't a clear best-practice and each application will have different needs and can use one of the many available plugin. However, I do believe that one shouldn't have to overwrite the core methods to translate the output of a standard helper. During the RailsConf, I had the opportunity to discuss this issue with David Heinemeier Hansson and maybe he could explain better the issue and potential solutions?
