Subject: Re: [sdd] Language_bundle
James,
I think that the current definition can provide this, i.e. it is a token. This
token provides a base name which some "best practice" can be used to
extend to language specific bundles. I think that is it a good idea to
follow the JRE approach. If you agree, we just need to spec how this
token should be used vs. changing the schema.

Re: [sdd] Language_bundle

How
about the "language_bundle" attribute identifies a _basename_,
to which locale names are added as suffixes in a
well-known strategy. For
example, if you specify "foo" as the
basename, and you are running in the
ja_JA locale with utf8 encoding, then runtimes
would know to look for
foo_ja_JA.utf8
foo_ja_JA
foo_ja
foo_en
foo
Just like how Sun's Java runtime environment looks
up ResourceBundles.
