[geeklog-devel] Look-up Tables in GL2

Tony,

Makes sense.

Remind me again where GL2 will keep the translated text strings - in
language files or in the database?

Anyway, I seem to remember that when there's no translation for a string,
it would use the english text, so there's no problem with keeping things
consistent.

That would be okay then (and would get rid of one of the annoyances in
the 1.3 design).

bye, Dirk
