[jboss-dev] JBoss Unified I18N Infrastructure

[David Ward]

Sorry,

I just joined the jboss-development list, so I don't know the full
context for this email thread.  Bill is including me 'cause he knows
I've done a significant amount of work on a project I would like to
lead, called "JBoss I18N".  Sacha also knows about it, and has asked
Mark to give it a look-see.  If anyone has any questions about it, I
would be glad to answer.  In the meantime, Sacha has suggested I create
a public WIKI page and attach the PDF overview presentation I had
previously created.  So, here it is:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossI18N

Best regards,
David
JBoss Solutions Architect
