From localization point of view is better to move some manifest attributes to special Bundle.properties file. The manifest attributes which should be moved to Bundle.properties file are attributes which are displayes to the user and have to be translated in the localized versions. This helps to localizations teams ... Bundle.properties files are more intuitiv. Thank's. Pat
Just improving the summary line.
Probably implemented in the trunk, needs to be documented, tests written, and used in some cases at least.
Yes, it is implemented and now documented; you can look at innertesters module as an example of how to use it.
verified in innertesters
Noting that this is necessary due to JDK bug 4260472 (entered by Jesse Glick!); the java.util.Jar classes for reading and writing manifests do not handle non-ASCII characters correctly.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
