				<title>Language Translations</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Jaikoz is fully internationalized - this means all the console messages, button labels, column titles and menus are held stored in a file seperate from the main program, and there can be different files for each language, these files are called property files

Jaikoz comes with an English and a Spanish property file, I do not have the expertise to accurately convert Jaikoz into other languages but it can be  easily done if you have language skills without any programming skills.

So I propose the following, if you are a native speaker of another language and would like Jaikoz to be converted to another language send an email to the usual address with details

I will create an automatic translation (using google translate) to your language plus provide a program that allows you to compare the english and new language versions. Then you need to verify/correct the translation and send the corrected file back to me. I will then make this available in the next release of Jaikoz and credit you with the translation.

I expect to provide more details of this once we have a few translations under way.

If anyone has any other ideas/comments feel free to post them

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi, there are quite a few (857), however many are quite similar. I could automatically translate it myself, but would like somebody to proof-read /check it more releasing it officially. You can see the what is to be translated by looking at jaikoz.properties in a text editor, would you like me to provide a  Russian translation ? ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ These are the sketched out instructions for doing a language translation:

Let me know what language you would like to translate and I will provide an auto-translated for your language. This gives a reasonable starting point so it should take less of your time.

I will send you the latest default file and the file for your language, the example instructions below uses Dutch.

Replace jaikoz.properties in your installation with the one attached
Also copy jaikoz_nl.properties to the same location

Goto https://prbeditor.dev.java.net/
Download prbeditor-0.9.7_1.zip file and install by unzipping to your folder of choice.
Double clickon prbeditor-0.9.7_1.jar, it should start automatically
From the Dialog select 'Open Resource File'
Then select Jaikoz.properties from within the Jaikoz Installation Folder
And select only the Dutch Locale
This will load all the properties key with their (Default) english  in one column and the Dutch value in the next column

You can now type in the values as required and correct the values, you don't have to supply every value to use the file.
One thing to be careful of is some of the values contain parameters, these are of the form {0}.{1},{2}.. You must ensure the same number of parameters are passed to the Russian language strings in order for it to be correct.

You can save changes with select 'File/Save' option
Now if you start Jaikoz and select 'Settings/Language Settings' you can select Dutch, and it will start using the values in the Dutch  properties file, if a value doesnt exist it will use the default (English) value.

When you are happy with it you can send me the jaikoz_nl.properties file and I will put it into the next release of Jaikoz,

You will be credited in the acknowledgements section of Jaikoz. I am also considering the possibility of sharing the the revenues of Sales that come from your country, but this isnt definite yet.

thanks Paul ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi, thanks somebody else did offer to do a ducth translation for me but I dont think they got very far. I am moving a few things around in the translation files to make things easier so I think it might be best to wait for the next release which will  be sometime in January before starting.
