+1 Notes on the Free Translation Project
+***************************************
+
+Free software is going international! The Free Translation Project is a
+way to get maintainers of free software, translators, and users all
+together, so that free software will gradually become able to speak many
+languages. A few packages already provide translations for their
+messages.
+
+ If you found this 'ABOUT-NLS' file inside a distribution, you may
+assume that the distributed package does use GNU 'gettext' internally,
+itself available at your nearest GNU archive site. But you do _not_
+need to install GNU 'gettext' prior to configuring, installing or using
+this package with messages translated.
+
+ Installers will find here some useful hints. These notes also
+explain how users should proceed for getting the programs to use the
+available translations. They tell how people wanting to contribute and
+work on translations can contact the appropriate team.
+
+1.1 INSTALL Matters
+===================
+
+Some packages are "localizable" when properly installed; the programs
+they contain can be made to speak your own native language. Most such
+packages use GNU 'gettext'. Other packages have their own ways to
+internationalization, predating GNU 'gettext'.
+
+ By default, this package will be installed to allow translation of
+messages. It will automatically detect whether the system already
+provides the GNU 'gettext' functions. Installers may use special
+options at configuration time for changing the default behaviour. The
+command:
+
+ ./configure --disable-nls
+
+will _totally_ disable translation of messages.
+
+ When you already have GNU 'gettext' installed on your system and run
+configure without an option for your new package, 'configure' will
+probably detect the previously built and installed 'libintl' library and
+will decide to use it. If not, you may have to to use the
+'--with-libintl-prefix' option to tell 'configure' where to look for it.
+
+ Internationalized packages usually have many 'po/LL.po' files, where
+LL gives an ISO 639 two-letter code identifying the language. Unless
+translations have been forbidden at 'configure' time by using the
+'--disable-nls' switch, all available translations are installed
+together with the package. However, the environment variable 'LINGUAS'
+may be set, prior to configuration, to limit the installed set.
+'LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter
+codes, stating which languages are allowed.
+
+1.2 Using This Package
+======================
+
+As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you
+only have to set the 'LANG' environment variable to the appropriate
+'LL_CC' combination. If you happen to have the 'LC_ALL' or some other
+'LC_xxx' environment variables set, you should unset them before setting
+'LANG', otherwise the setting of 'LANG' will not have the desired
+effect. Here 'LL' is an ISO 639 two-letter language code, and 'CC' is
+an ISO 3166 two-letter country code. For example, let's suppose that
+you speak German and live in Germany. At the shell prompt, merely
+execute 'setenv LANG de_DE' (in 'csh'), 'export LANG; LANG=de_DE' (in
+'sh') or 'export LANG=de_DE' (in 'bash'). This can be done from your
+'.login' or '.profile' file, once and for all.
+
+ You might think that the country code specification is redundant.
+But in fact, some languages have dialects in different countries. For
+example, 'de_AT' is used for Austria, and 'pt_BR' for Brazil. The
+country code serves to distinguish the dialects.
+
+ The locale naming convention of 'LL_CC', with 'LL' denoting the
+language and 'CC' denoting the country, is the one use on systems based
+on GNU libc. On other systems, some variations of this scheme are used,
+such as 'LL' or 'LL_CC.ENCODING'. You can get the list of locales
+supported by your system for your language by running the command
+'locale -a | grep '^LL''.
+
+ Not all programs have translations for all languages. By default, an
+English message is shown in place of a nonexistent translation. If you
+understand other languages, you can set up a priority list of languages.
+This is done through a different environment variable, called
+'LANGUAGE'. GNU 'gettext' gives preference to 'LANGUAGE' over 'LANG'
+for the purpose of message handling, but you still need to have 'LANG'
+set to the primary language; this is required by other parts of the
+system libraries. For example, some Swedish users who would rather read
+translations in German than English for when Swedish is not available,
+set 'LANGUAGE' to 'sv:de' while leaving 'LANG' to 'sv_SE'.
+
+ Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian
+bokma*l changed from 'no' to 'nb' recently (in 2003). During the
+transition period, while some message catalogs for this language are
+installed under 'nb' and some older ones under 'no', it's recommended
+for Norwegian users to set 'LANGUAGE' to 'nb:no' so that both newer and
+older translations are used.
+
+ In the 'LANGUAGE' environment variable, but not in the 'LANG'
+environment variable, 'LL_CC' combinations can be abbreviated as 'LL' to
+denote the language's main dialect. For example, 'de' is equivalent to
+'de_DE' (German as spoken in Germany), and 'pt' to 'pt_PT' (Portuguese
+as spoken in Portugal) in this context.
+
+1.3 Translating Teams
+=====================
+
+For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested
+people who like their own language and write it well, and who are also
+able to synergize with other translators speaking the same language.
+Each translation team has its own mailing list. The up-to-date list of
+teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage,
+'http://translationproject.org/', in the "Teams" area.
+
+ If you'd like to volunteer to _work_ at translating messages, you
+should become a member of the translating team for your own language.
+The subscribing address is _not_ the same as the list itself, it has
+'-request' appended. For example, speakers of Swedish can send a
+message to 'sv-request@li.org', having this message body:
+
+ subscribe
+
+ Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate _actively_
+in translations, or at solving translational difficulties, rather than
+merely lurking around. If your team does not exist yet and you want to
+start one, or if you are unsure about what to do or how to get started,
+please write to 'coordinator@translationproject.org' to reach the
+coordinator for all translator teams.
+
+ The English team is special. It works at improving and uniformizing
+the terminology in use. Proven linguistic skills are praised more than
+programming skills, here.
+
+1.4 Available Packages
+======================
+
+Languages are not equally supported in all packages. The following
+matrix shows the current state of internationalization, as of Jun 2014.
+The matrix shows, in regard of each package, for which languages PO
+files have been submitted to translation coordination, with a
+translation percentage of at least 50%.

+
+ Some counters in the preceding matrix are higher than the number of
+visible blocks let us expect. This is because a few extra PO files are
+used for implementing regional variants of languages, or language
+dialects.
+
+ For a PO file in the matrix above to be effective, the package to
+which it applies should also have been internationalized and distributed
+as such by its maintainer. There might be an observable lag between the
+mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a distribution.
+
+ If Jun 2014 seems to be old, you may fetch a more recent copy of this
+'ABOUT-NLS' file on most GNU archive sites. The most up-to-date matrix
+with full percentage details can be found at
+'http://translationproject.org/extra/matrix.html'.
+
+1.5 Using 'gettext' in new packages
+===================================
+
+If you are writing a freely available program and want to
+internationalize it you are welcome to use GNU 'gettext' in your
+package. Of course you have to respect the GNU Lesser General Public
+License which covers the use of the GNU 'gettext' library. This means
+in particular that even non-free programs can use 'libintl' as a shared
+library, whereas only free software can use 'libintl' as a static
+library or use modified versions of 'libintl'.
+
+ Once the sources are changed appropriately and the setup can handle
+the use of 'gettext' the only thing missing are the translations. The
+Free Translation Project is also available for packages which are not
+developed inside the GNU project. Therefore the information given above
+applies also for every other Free Software Project. Contact
+'coordinator@translationproject.org' to make the '.pot' files available
+to the translation teams.
