Translations

Note that the ATCT file object by default has a languageIndependent file attribute. That means that you can translate the Title and Description of a file object but not change the real file. Publications changes this behaviour for ATCT and Blob files.

LinguaPlone is patched

the file linguaplone_addTranslation_patch patches linguaplones addTranslation method. It simply adds a new event that is thrown after a translation is created but before its data is set. This is necessary because on translation we need to subtype before we can set any data, otherwise the schema will not be extended.
