[GRASSLIST:3250] GRASS, Mapserver Internationalization (i18n)

[Venkatesh Raghavan]

Dear All,

As a part of the project  sponsored by Information-technology Promotion
Agency (IPA), Japan, the grass5.0.3-i18n, tcltkgrass-2.7-i18n, 
nviz2.2-i18n and Mapserver4.0.1-i18n (diff file) have been developed. 
The outcome
of the Project that concluded in March 2004 are made available thru
the FOSS4G (Free and Open Source Software for Geoinformatics)
and GRASS-Japan portal site that was recently launched (April 2004).
The portal site can be accessed at http://www.foss4g.org/FOSS4G/
or http://www.grass-japan.org/

Links for i18n related source, binaries and installation instructions
can be accessed form the top-page of the above mentioned portal site.
Instructions for localization to other languages are available at  
portal site.

We hope that the i18n functionality would be included in the next
stable version of GRASS5.

Kind regards
