Hoi,We currently want the "most used" messages to be localised. They are the most visible messages but that does not mean that they are the most important for understanding a user interface. When your work means that those messages that ordinary readers and editors do not see or need are in separate groups from the ones they do need, we have a situation where I find that we no longer need the localisation of all messages and have a potential replacement for the "most used" messages..Thanks,GerardMOn 19 March 2018 at 15:26, Amir E.
