For earlier discussion, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/14494

This issue was labelled with: A-libs, P-high in the Rust repository


We have been told that internationalization is pretty standardized at this point on the web and many languages are starting to follow along. The authoritative spec for this is located here, and it sounds like we shouldn't deviate from that spec much (as it's what everyone is expecting).

Nominating, but I do not believe this is a 1.0 issue.

Start by reading the ECMA-402 1.0 specification and the earlier discussion in rust-lang/rust#14494. Review the issue comments for the current consensus and determine what an implementation proposal would need to cover; done means a concrete, agreed direction for an ECMA-402-based internationalization library.
