Sounds good. When I understand this correctly we could have a plain josm
and additional files for each language and we would not loose the
possibility to change language inside the software because the jarindex
is a way to tell the software which files contains which class and
loading is dynamic.
Someone willing to make a working prototype?
I wont do it, as I don't see a real sense ATM, but when done the server
side support would be easy.
This very likely also would need to fix the plugin-loading issue with
webstart, because currently josm is not allowed to load the jar-files in
Webstart mode.
At the weekend I will do the rework of language stuff to reduce english
string requirements and I will rearange stuff in a way, so that the number
of included languages can still be dynamic.
