[Cosmo-dev] Re: [commits-cosmo] (travis) [5093] Bug 9960: Point links to new landing page.

[Matthew Eernisse]

Travis,

Is there some reason you did away with the parametric replacement in the 
localized strings?

The JavaScript getText function is fully capable of doing replacement -- 
and breaking the strings up like that make it impossible to do 
translations in languages that have word-order different from English. 
That's the point of the replacement stuff -- it lets you insert 
arbitrary strings (like version numbers or URLs) into the localized text 
wherever you need it.

Was it just an oversight, or is something else wrong with our JS i18n code?
