Drupal Voices 146: Robert Douglass on internationalization and localization

Listen online: 

Robert Douglass talks about his experiences with Drupal's Internationalization and localization systems through the Internationalization (I18n) module and ICanLocalize Translator module, which integrates with the ICanLocalize.com translation service. He also talks about some of his lessons learned, and how the i18n process could still be improved in Drupal 8.
