Hi,<br><br>Referring to the simplified lookup (<a href="http://cal10n.qos.ch/manual.html#simplifiedLookup">http://cal10n.qos.ch/manual.html#simplifiedLookup</a>), I think this has been simplified too far.<br><br>Firstly, I think your simplification by removing the default properties file is
justified because it makes it easier to test the robustness of the
application, which is a Good Thing.  The decision may be controversial because it means that translations have to be done to completion or not at all; partially complete translations will fail.  But it is consistent with Cal10n&#39;s stated objective of supporting verifiably self-consistent resource bundles.<br>

<br>However, there is another issue that I am unhappy about.  Java&#39;s Locale allows language, country and region to be specified.  You have removed the region (or not documented it).  Although the region is not often used, I think it is necessary and should be supported.<br clear="all">
