Re: JAVA Internationalization Checklist for Developers

Brenda,

Globalization folks at Sun have just published the "Sun I18n Taxonomy 
Document",
which includes a matrix checklist designed to help products assess their i18n
status.  Java specifics are not addressed, but all areas which are touched by
i18n are identified.  We use this quite extensively to help product groups
understand what they need to do to internationalize their products.

http://www.sun.com/developers/gadc/i18ntesting/i18ntaxonomy/index.html

This is part of the Sun Global Application Developer Corner, which has other
useful i18n information.

Regards,
Andrea
Sun-Netscape Alliance i18n architect
