Marcus I think that we should sync because personally I do not want to giant kernel. I want a bootstrap and modular packages. I think that making all the packages internal to the image is a recipe to get a monolithic system. I do not see why loading a package would hurt.
Yes, letâs discuss it sometimes this week.

So I'm checking and when we load Gettext, System-Localization only contains ISOLanguageDefinition Locale
Locale is used by LanguageEnvironment, LocalID, TimeZone, Unicode
When we will clean leadingChar some of these will go away.
So not all the package System-Localisation can be moved out the image to got in a newer version of getText
Localization is very basic functionality that should be provided by the platform itself. We are in the situation that we are in only because people see Pharo as something âto build on topâ.
This way everyone does their own I18N stuff, while the right thing would be to have *one* that is good and part or Pharo itself.
Just think about it: Pharo itself should have translated menus. So we need *something* in the system anyway. Why then not make it good and make it the one that everyone is using?
