actually what we did was to make more bits more i18n. though it would be 
nice to know how many different l10n versions are out there to see how 
far ray's blog has been g11n ;-) and in case anyone else has forgotten, 
some of the more important i18n gang signs:

i18n = internationalization (what you do to s/w before you l10n)
l10n = localization (what you to do s/w for a given locale)
g11n = globalization (what you get after doing l10n across a bunch of 
locales)

and yes it's more or less common practice to grammatically abuse these 
acronyms (or what some folks are calling "alphanumerish"):

i18n abused as internationalized
l10n abused as localized
g11n abused as globalized
