Honestly I don't really think internationalization is something mandatory or even important in a build environment. I don't think there is a skilled developer or build engineer on earth that can achieve his job without having to use english. The software industry (especially in programming tools) is moving so fast that the time you ship the internationalized version, it is already obsolete and you are shipping the nth+1 version. You will put lots of effort into something that will be useful for 0.0000001%. Definitely not worth it to me. -- St�phane Bailliez Software Engineer, Paris - France iMediation - http://www.imediation.com Disclaimer: All the opinions expressed above are mine and not those from my company.
