Re: [Mono-list] Gettext support or not.

2004-03-07 Thread Miguel de Icaza 
Hello,

 I see that Gettext-0.14 has been released for C# so one can use the
 standard *.po file format for multiple languages.  In the announcement
 for Monodevelop, ICU is discussed as being required for
 internationalization. 
 
 I'm just wondering why one would choose one technique over another for
 GTK# and GLADE files?  Does anyone have any insight here?

ICU is a library that is used to implement CultureInfo and string
collation.  Gettext is just a way to internationalize text messages. 
They serve different purposes.

We plan to transition to gettext at some time in the near future.
