I'm also an author and technical editor, so that's how all this ties into how I became an Invited Expert to the W3C's GEO group. This is the Education & Outreach branch of the i18n groups within the W3C. Part of my work there is as goodwill ambassador, reaching out to a wide range of developers who are working in i18n to help build bridges between developer needs and W3C specifications, as well as helping to make W3C information more understandable to the community at large. So, my interest in this group is primarily to be a "fly on the wall" and learn about developer concerns in Python as they pertain to i18n, and if it's okay with folks here, to occasionally drop a line about W3C i18n issues that would be of interest to this group. I'm also dearly interested in any references you might recommend for me to read up more on top dev issues in Python wrt i18n. Thanks everyone, Molly :) Molly E.

It is dedicated to the development, maintenance and promotion of The Unicode Standard, a worldwide character encoding. The Unicode Standard encodes the characters of the world's principal scripts and languages, and is code-for-code identical to the international standard ISO/IEC 10646. In addition to cooperating with ISO on the future development of ISO/IEC 10646, the Consortium is responsible for providing character properties and algorithms for use in implementations. Today the membership base of the Unicode Consortium includes major computer corporations, software producers, database vendors, research institutions, international agencies and various user groups.
