[Zope-dev] Zope Exceptions and translation

[Andre Schubert]

Hi,

yes it is a big job, but i started at all form-based exceptions,
because the members of our websites can manage many things over
web-forms, thats why i tried to patch
all HTTPResponse-exceptions with writing a product that patches the
correspondend functions,
further i patched Converters.py so that it returns german error_values.
Thats the work i have done and it seems to work for me.
All i want is a Product which catches as many exceptions as possible and
translate them into, for me, german.
I also thought that i can design the product as like as zzlocale, thats
its easy to translate into other languages.

I dont want to hack the sources, i want a Product but its hard to
program all the exceptions.

thanks as
