entering same info as for 52931 on j2ee:

Im looking at browsable cvs source
under j2ee and websvc and dont
see l10n.list at top level, as is
requirement. Assuming I'm looking
at correct place, l10n.list needs
to be created, populated and always
kept up to date, as its l10n.list
accuracy that decides on what
is delivered to l10n to translate.

See other open and closed source l10n.lists for
examples.

Also, strongly encourage use
of ** wildcarding in the list vs
explictily naming each file, to 
improve accuracy  and to avoid
needing to remember to add some
new file (as long as its within
also the ** wildcarded path)

for example, if we assume all
files with name Bundle*.properties
will be localized, then a list
entry might have
websvc/src/**/Bundle*.properties

or even

websvc/**/Bundle*.properties

which means get all Bundle*.properties files
starting at the src subdir for first
case or at the top level for 2nd case.

The key is to put the wildcard as far up the tree
as possible while
still being accurate (ie to avoid
having some Bundle.properties file
that should not be in the kit - but
it seems that any Bundle.properties
in cvs shd be in kit or else removed
from cvs ?)



Same goes for *.html template
descriptor files, javahelp files
(html, xml. hs), gifs and .url files
if applicable.

There should not be any xml or other
files that need to be localized.

PS are there any other source
trees besides j2ee and websvc 
that might need the list ?

PS #2 - in j2eeserver list,
it doesnt seem to show javahelp files path -
should it ?
Can this list be reviewed ?
