1This project provides lists of various ISO standards (e.g. country, language,
2language scripts, and currency names) in one place, rather than repeated in many
3programs throughout the system.

5Currently there are lists of languages and countries embedded in several
6different programs, which leads to dozens of lists of 200 languages, translated
7into more than 90 languages ... not very efficient.

9With this project, we create a single "gettext domain" for every supported ISO
10standard which contains the translations of that domain. It is easy for a
11programmer to re-use those translations instead of maintaining their own
12translation infrastructure. Moreover, the programmer does not need to follow
13changes in the ISO standard and will not work with outdated information.
