Hi all,

I'm about to start working on this i18n blocker bug: http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-14453

To import events from a csv file, you must specify the type of the event. For example:
Example Event 1, This is the description for event #1, 9/1/2008, 11:00 AM, 1:00, Deadline, Taubman Library 2919

'Deadline' is not internationalized. In fact, if you specify 'Término de plazo' instead of 'Deadline', event type is not recognized properly. One quite straightforward approach to this problem would be to use a numeric event type (1=Deadline, 2=Quiz...and so on), as number are not language-dependent.

There also problems with dates. You'll find a detalied description in the JIRA: http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-14453

Before to fix it, I would like feedback community about using numbers  (1=Deadline, 2=Quiz...and so on) or codes (event.deadline = deadline, event.quiz = quiz, ...) in the import file. Any suggestion/help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance.

David
