phew. this is scary. i thought i'd put together a trivial patch for a
trivial problem, but how very wrong.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/local/lenya-build/lenya_1_4_X-vanilla/build/lenya>
grep -r "Parent ID" *
webapp/lenya/pubs/default/lenya/usecases/site/create.jx:
<i18n:text>Parent ID</i18n:text>:</td>
webapp/lenya/resources/i18n/cmsui_de.xml: <message key="Parent
ID">Übergerodnete ID</message>
webapp/lenya/resources/i18n/cmsui_ru.xml:<message key="Parent
ID">Родительский идентификатор</message>
what a mess. the usecase is a part of the default publication, and the
i18n data is a site-wide thing.
is this due to some ongoing refactoring work (i hear java people do that
all the time ;) or just a historic screw-up that nobody has gotten
around to fixing yet?
why does the default publication define such standard usecases anyway?
isn't this a good candidate for site-wide code under webapp/lenya?
i've submitted minor patches to a number of open-source projects, but
lenya is by orders of magnitude the hardest to dig into. i'm really
willing to submit a patch, but hey, do i really have to shuffle some 10
files around just to change a string in the GUI?
i'd welcome directions.
