Joshua, most of non-english speaking developers I know try to use english for class names, methods, fields, constants... English is the 'lingua franca' for code, so even developers with bad english level like me try to use english all the time... so internationalized logging messages do not make sense from my perspective. And sometimes translations are awful, or even hilarious.<div>
<br></div><div>So +1 for english only logging messages in the code.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div>Diego</div><div><br></div><div>P.D.: I know this is the kind of topic everybody has an opinion, so I hope nobody feels attacked ;-)<br clear="all">

<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I was just wondering if I could get clarification on something I never understood related to i8ln.<br>
<br>
In nova HACKING.rst there is a line that mentions how log messages should be using gettext for i8ln.<br>
<br>
Is it common in other companies to attempt to internationalize log messages? <br>
<br>
I’ve seen this throughout the different openstack code and never quite understood why.<br>
<br>
I can understand horizon being internationalized, but debugging/error/warning (logging) messages? Isn’t that meant to be read by a developer, who will most likely understand english (to some degree).<br>
<br>
??<br>
