Being a skeptical person, I asked myself, "Will focusing on our internal processes really enable us to deliver value to customers, as and when needed?"In fact, we did significantly cut our release cycles.

That's about to change. We are now making changes so that other languages can be available on the Forge. This is part of our internationalization effort to support end users whose first language is not English.If you're writing a module and you want to make it available in multiple languages, you need to decorate strings that are externalized — that is, displayed to the person using the module ...
