Description

Currently we support something like this for i18nized resources:

mylib/img/logo.gif
mylib/img/de/logo.gif
mylib/img/en_US/logo.gif

It would make sence to change the i18n via folders to the mechanism ResourceBundle uses, thus something like this:

mylib/img/logo.gif
mylib/img/logo_de.gif
mylib/img/logo_en_US.gif

IMO this is a lot clearer to the developer, since everyone using ResourceBundles knows how this works. The current solution, which uses folders, may confuse some developers, because you don't know exactly where to put the i18nized folder - before or after the library name (as shown above, after is the right choice).
