  1. Your example in /resbundle/propfile.html would be misleading for a german= ,=20 because "Platte" denotes only a hard disk, not a floppy disk (which is=20 "Diskette"). One of the rare moments, when the english language is not=20 precise enough.

  2. The sample time formats in /format/dateFormate.html given for the german=20 locale are wrong. According to german rules (Duden rule no. 233d) hours and=20 minutes are separated by a period instead of a colon.

  3. The german sentence used as an example in /format/messageFormat.html is=20 quite clumsy, though absolutely correct. Use "Wir haben am 13. April 1998 um=20 13.15 Uhr 7 Raumschiffe auf dem Planeten Mars entdeckt" instead, which will=20 even make your point clearer, since the order of the arguments changes.

  4. Checking character properties with the Character methods is all very fine= .=20 But please tell your colleagues at the collection trail about this=20 magnificent feature, so they can use it as well.

  5. First things last: There is one hint to be added to /intro/checklist.html= ,=20 namely to do l10n for german first. Not because the language is so beautiful=20 (she isn=B4t) or so easy (she=B4s rather lingual hell on earth), but she is=20 lengthy as a tape worm! If the size of menues, dialogs, reports etc. is=20 sufficient for german, it is sufficient for every language. As you can see,=20 we can=B4t even write short mails in english.
