	~~''to be completed''~~		The new i18n library should provide translation as well as date, time, value and currency formatting.
			It should run on at least windows (with and without .NET) and linux.

	=~~Milestones~~=		=Status=

	~~''add milestones~~ of ~~semesterproject''~~		As of 16 October 2006 we have all features working and almost all tested.
			Some difficulty exists with the windows installation procedure. The linux version works without problems.
	~~==Mx: ??? ==~~
	* Write a summary of how [[Internationalization/posix_locale\|POSIX locale]] information is stored
	* Write a summary of how [[Internationalization/nls_locale\|NLS (Windows) locale]] infomation is stored
	* Write a summary of how [[Internationalization/dotnet_locale\|.NET locale]] information is stored
	* Write a small summary of date and time classes in EiffelBase
	* Examine the .ts file format, notably plural form handling
	* Examine the .xliff file format, notably plural form handling (we ~~did some of this already)~~
	* Enter classes & features ~~into EiffelStudio so we have a starting point~~ and ~~a BON diagram~~
	* Sit down and think about the ~~current class names. Some of them need improving.~~

	~~==M5: July ?? ==~~
	* Refactoring of whole library
	* Use our library for EiffelStudio
	* Clean up Wiki and improve Developer manual
	* Add support for other aspects of localisation - dates, number format etc. ''(possibly we can defer this a bit)''
	** Compile a [[Internationalization/l10n_features \| list of basic features]] to provide (e.g. ~~date/time format, system locale) ''(deferred from M3)''~~

	Our aim is not only to provide a framework to ease the translation of Eiffel-written applications, allowing the user to chose his/her preferred language at runtime, but also to let the developer access information and formats based on users' locale.		Our aim is not only to provide a framework to ease the translation of Eiffel-written applications, allowing the user to chose his/her preferred language at runtime, but also to let the developer access information and formats based on users' locale.

			===Brief history===

			Orginally the internationalisation (i18n) project was started as a required project for an ETH Software Architecture course.
			The result was less then perfect; pages referring to this first version have been given an 'SA' prefix.
			Some members of this SA project team decided to rewrite the library as a semester project. Pages on the wiki not prefixed with 'SA' are either applicable to both or to the semester project.
