Re: Minutes: July 30, 2025 - Internationalization Accessibility Community Group (global-inclusion) Meeting

https://www.w3.org/2025/07/30-global-inclusion-minutes.html says:

>Localization and Internationalization both relate to translation, but 
are different as follows: Localization is typically for 2 languages and 
Internationalization is for 3 or more languages.

That's not the usual definition of how they differ. See 
https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-i18n for the normal 
explanation. In a nutshell:

Designers and developers internationalise products, so that they can be 
easily localised by translators and localisers.
