This is an umbrella ticket to add/improve support for i18n in Sirius. "Support i18n" is very broad and vague, but the focus is on allowing Sirius-based modelers to be internationalized. It does not at this point concern translating the VSM editor for example. Some concrete actions (which will be treated in separate tickets): * Externalize strings from the Sirius source code, in particular the one which appear in the end-user-visible UI parts (e.g. menus, dialogs, error messages), using the standard Eclipse tooling and localization framework. * Provide a way for hard-coded (i.e. non-interpreted) strings in a VSM to be translatable if they appear in the UI. For example the names of tools which appear in the palette are not computed but should be translatable. We could introduce a convention similar to the one in Eclipse's plugin.xml & MANIFEST.MF: a tool name of the form "%newItem" in the VSM would, at runtime, be looked-up in a locale-specific .properties file.
Moving to 3.0 to at least make some concrete moves in this direction.
Moving to 4.0. I'll create sub-tickets for smaller tasks, some of which may be feasible for 3.1.

For this part, http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/tutorials/how-to-customize-emf-forms/#localization seems to have some good ideas to take inspiration from (and maybe actual code too).

There's some followup work identified (for which we still need to create the tickets), but considering the scope we targeted for this version, the work is done.
