[kepler-users] Where to go with the problems of internationalization or how create account into forum?

It turns out that Kepler (more precisely, Ptolemey) uses the locale only "US".

Comment about this was found in version 1.0.0

         / / Even if the user is set up for foreign locale, use the US locale.
         / / This is because certain parts of Ptolemy (like the expression
         / / Language) are not localized.
         / / FIXME: This is a workaround for the locale problem, not a fix.

         try (
             java.util.Locale.setDefault (java.util.Locale.US);

Partly for that reason was unable to ensure that Kepler used in the
folder configs\ptolemy\configs\kepler instead of files

uiContextMenuMappings_en_US.properties
uiDisplayText_en_US.properties
uiMenuMappings_en_US.properties

appropriate

uiContextMenuMappings_uk_UA.properties
uiDisplayText_uk_UA.properties
uiMenuMappings_uk_UA.properties
