I'd say, despite the danger to repeat oneself, that, imho, Haskell needs
something better in the realm of 'i18n' over the present i18n package
labelled with the 'experimental stability tag.

In http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe/44054 thread I
provided a list of 'serious' languages with proper gettext support and
some reasons (from gtk2hs dev) what is missing in Haskell version with
only Duncan's reply :-(

Quick googling gives the following for:

a) Ocaml - http://sylvain.le-gall.net/ocaml-gettext.html

b) Erlang -
http://www.trapexit.org/Gettext_-_An_internationalization_package.

Dunno about Clean, while there is no point in discussing i18n
capabilities in F# ;)


Sincerely,
Gour
