You may be interested in the following issues: TRANS-518, TRANS-493.
Once implemented they would allow to translate and create private language packs right from your JIRA. They are related to IPT plugin: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.translations.jira.inproduct

Feel free to comment and vote those issues.

atlassian@seibert-media.net - TAC language packs are public. If you want to have custom private ones, you will need to build them locally.

ericklein - well, language pack formats are a little bit undocumented. https://developer.atlassian.com/display/CONFDEV/Language+Module is the best place to start. Otherwise, modifying the existing language pack is the way to go. If you need custom languages, note that you have to put the language name as suffix of all property files. Maybe this is what you missed?

We already understood that we will need to built it ourselves, since we have a couple of country Language combination for this customer which are special.

The question would be:
How exactly do we built it on our own?
We tried to take a existing Language pack and modify it and then modify the properties and descriptors, but it didn t seem to work.
Is there any kind of detailed documentation for this?

Actually we want to create a custom language pack for one customer. Is that also possible on TAC? Or will we need to make all our work public? There will probably not be anybody out there who is interested in these custom language packs.

That seems to answer my thought above. Correct?

If you are going to change create a language pack for a language that is not available in TAC, you can get a general feel of how the language pack is structured from one of the other languages. But you will have to build it yourself.

Another option (which I actually suggest that you take) is to translate right from within translations.atlassian.com, so that your contributions are public. If you would like TAC to support a language that is not there yet, just let me know and I will add it
