Those files look like we could process them, but I don't know the format. I've already written parsing routines for the RDF files (actually just treating them as XML with well-defined namespaces). I could switch to PO files if need be. Of course, the RDF files give us much more than the resource bundles we usually use for i18n. So I'm happy to stay with the RDF files if we can.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi Jim,

Also, just of note, the RDF is probably not quite as up to date as the
PO files themselves (in Subversion; see
http://code.creativecommons.org/viewsvn/i18n/).

We can probably do some sort of "packaging" of those if it'd be
helpful. I'm not sure what Java expects with respect to translation
files... do they use PO files?

Hi Jim,

But we'd really like to use a "released" version packaged as a jar or
zip archive with version number and such so we can easily track
changes and make sure we are getting a stable version for our
releases. Ideally, we would let maven get the specified version from
from http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/ or some mirror.
So the question is whether there are versioned releases of these
files, and whether there is a best way to get them?

I forgot to mention that there are packages of the license RDF as part
of the liblicense library [0] (which reads and writes license metadata
to a variety of file formats). There is liblicense-rdf which is a
released package of the license.rdf code tree. I don't believe I know
what system Sakai runs on but there are deb packages or rpms
available through most distributions. In fact we host our own
repository for liblicense for Debian and Ubuntu [1]

This could be one solution, but not exactly what you want.

Best,

Greg
