New manifest contains unexplained link to a CDN (which doesn't even have a valid certificate)

[Ithanil]

The new manifest file contains a key localesBaseUrl which has as value an URL to a CDN, for which is not explained what the purpose of this is, who operates the CDN, what content is hosted there and especially not how to replace this with a self-hosted solution. Also the site does not even provide a certificate.

plugin-typed-captions/manifest.json

Line 5 in bcd69d2

"localesBaseUrl": "https://cdn.dominio.com/pluginabc/",

Please put the contents into this repository and explain a bit what is going on here.

Hello, @Ithanil , thank you for pointing that out! We are going to take care of this situation soon enough. But for all that matters, this key is the base URL for the CDN to the locales of that specific plugin (so: related to translations).

And you are right, that is currently not pointing anywhere yet, because this is just a mocked data. We'll implement the translations for this specific plugin (if needed, of course) in the near future.

Hi @GuiLeme , thanks for the response.

I would be happy to help with German translations. Since this plugin provides functionality that was part of the core before, for me it is a necessary prerequisite to rolling out BBB 3.0 and thus it needs German translations. ;-) Just so you know, being able to localize is quite important to us.

Hello, @Ithanil, thank you for the patience! I just sent in a couple of PRs adding the locale feature to the Plugins and specially for this plugin:

• feat: Add internationalization for this plugin #8
• feat(plugins): add useLocaleMessage to plugins bigbluebutton#22269
• feat(plugins): add useLocaleMessage to plugins bigbluebutton-html-plugin-sdk#147

If you want to, feel free to test already, but I'd recommend waiting for the merge of the PR in the CORE and in the plugin-SDK first.

Ping if anything comes up, and thanks again!
