Welcome to the Internationalization & Localization Community!

Internationalization (I18n) is a way of designing and producing software that can be easily adapted to any regions of the world.

Localization (L10n) is a process of adapting software for specific languages and regions. It involves establishing online information to support a language, region, or both, called a locale, that can be dynamically loaded to the software during runtime. I18n is a pre-requisite for l10n.

This community intends to help i18n and l10n of OpenSolaris software components. By participating in this community, together, we can make OpenSolaris to speak your languages and cultural conventions even better.
