what do you mean ?

See mw:Internationalisation#Parameter_substitution. I haven't yet checked the interface messages on if there is an immediate need. However, if numbers are used in messages (for example the number of search results, a need for it is almost unavoidable). No deal-breaker, though, but we are also in the business of awareness, and hope that i18n in all software products will be perfect one day :)

• • must be able to read UTF-8 translation (or lossless conversion of it) in BMP (Basic multilingual plane in Unicode)

done

• • support for Right-to-Left text direction languages

Excellecent overview, and I think this product well qualifies. Guillaume has written a parser for DTD, I understand, which is something I am extremely pleased about. I'll wait until Niklas returns, and talk implementation details with him. We know how to add products, so I think we've had the worst already. I'll be in Argentinia next week for Wikimania, so I am uncertain what kind of activity level I will have after the weekend. From the above and the current status, I am confident however, that support for okawix localisation on translatewiki.net will be active within two weeks. Yay!
