If you are interested I have implemented my own mechanism.Which I was planning to publish as a commercial library. It's not perfect (for example sort by:xxx in the grid header is not translated) but it goes a long way. If you are interested I could send contact info. Maybe I can devote some time to improve as much as it goes and see if you are interested.

Hey Kostas,

that would be great in my case, as well...

i need application to be able to run simultaneosly on 2-3 languages, but i was unable to do this...

and i would not try to "finish" application, and than publish it in two variants, each having different language, as that would surly mess things up in a big way  :)

so, it would be great to achieve application to be used on 10-15 computers ibn the same time, on 2-3 languages...

as you know - it's a reall confidence bummer when you say to client that "something can't be done"  :-)

@Supreet: I guess it's the timezone difference to blame. I have sent you an invitation to talk in gtalk. Also I accepted your invitation in LinkedIn. The thing is that I have not packed the library for sharing. Also, it's not 100% ready I have issues I haven't dealt with yet (e.g. ModalWindows). And last but not least being the only multilanguage solution for LS I know of, I am very cautious. Only talking in private we can find a way to share.

@Miroslav: Miroslav what I wrote to Supreet stands for you too (except for the timezone issue :-)). I will be contacting you soon for more.

@Supreet & @Miroslav: I am going through a very busy couple of weeks and I don't know if I can be fast to what you want.
