Tested 'make docs info dvi pdf html' in classpath/doc.  OK for trunk?
If yes, will somebody push this upstream into classpath for me?

Thanks,
Ralf

 In the above example, bundle #1 will act as the parent of bundle #2, which in turn will act as the parent for bundle #3. This ordering is used by the Java runtime to choose which file to load based on the set Locale. For example if the Locale is @code{fr_CH}, @code{messages_fr.properties} will be used because (a) @code{messages_fr_CH.properties} does not exist, but (b) @code{messages_fr.properties} is the parent for the required bundle, and it exists. As another example, suppose the Locale was set to @code{en_AU}; then the tool will end up using @code{messages.properties} because (a) @code{messages_en_AU.properties} does not exist, (b) @code{messages_en.properties} which is the parent for the required bundle does not exist, but (c) @code{messages.properties} exists and is the root of the hierarchy.
 
-You can see from the examples above that @file{messages.properties} is the safety net that the Java runtime falls back to when failing to find a specific bunlde and its parent(s).
