Summary0005313: Make languages downloadable via the installer
DescriptionGiven the increasing number of languages for MM, it would be useful to have language files loaded dynamically by the installer. That way:
-the installer can run in all supported languages by integrating the installer localizations for all languages
-the installer size can be kept down by having language files for the app load dynamically
-help files for foreign languages can automatically install (assuming we don't switch to wiki-based help).
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build1353

There are a few problems in build 1352:

1) Text for untranslated strings appears in Czech instead of English. e.g.:
Upon completing the install in French:
Stahuji jazykvy balicek: French

and then another dialog:
Stazeni jazykovenho baliktu selhalo: French (Chyba stazeni)

All untranslated strings should appear in English

2) UTF-8 strings from install.po files display incorrectly in the installer (issue re. .isl codepages).

3) Some languages fail to download (requires further investigation--perhaps links are incorrect?)

Setting as immediate--this should be fixed right away.
