Folks;

As Jason noted, the NDT applet has been modified in an effort to internationalize the messages. As I understand it, the key is that browsers know how to deal with multiple languages. To take advantage of this, all the messages the NDT Applet can send are now stored in a single language specific .properties file. This file uses a key=value pair to map language text to a key. The browser automatically pulls the language text from the specific .properties file when needed.

To extend this to other languages, all that is required is to grab a copy of one of the new .properties files. Use that to get the keys and update the text message. Then send the new .properties file back to this list (or specifically to Jason) and the NDT package will be updated.

Thanks to all for the broad support for this approach.

Regards;
Rich

Hi there,

From the Department of Telematics Engineering (Computer networks) at
the Technical University of Catalonia (Barcelona, Spain). we could help
with the translation into Spanish and Catalan.
If it's ok you can contact David Rincon

Hi All;

The NDT project (http://www.internet2.edu/performance/ndt/) recently
received a generous contribution from Jon Hellen at Uninett to add
localization support (e.g. translations of status and error
messages) to the NDT Java applet. I am writing to see if there are
any individuals in the perfSONAR and NDT communities who would be
interested in contributing translations into other languages. As an
example of what we are asking, here is the US package:


http://code.google.com/p/ndt/source/browse/trunk/Applet/Tcpbw100_msgs_en_US.properties

And here is the translation into Norwegian:


http://code.google.com/p/ndt/source/browse/trunk/Applet/Tcpbw100_msgs_nb_NO.properties

If anyone feels they could contribute, please respond and denote
what language or country you would be able to add support for.

Thanks in advance;

-jason
