Internationalization Review Radar
This page summarizes upcoming specifications that the Internationalization Working Group is aware of that need to be reviewed for internationalization-related considerations. Please refer to the instructions for how to raise and track issues.
The Internationalization community is invited to participate in this process. By contributing reviews and review comments, you can help ensure that W3C Specifications and documents from other standards bodies and groups that the Internationalization Working Group has reviewed are truly "global ready". Help us advance our mission of making the World Wide Web truly World-wide!
On-Going
Currently the Internationalization Working Group uses GitHub Issues to keep track of our comments on various specifications and other documents.
Historically we used the Tracker tool (list of open issues, sorted by product). And before we used Tracker (and this page), we used a different format to keep track of reviews and our comments. For those historical comments, look here: Former Review History
There is also a list of issues raised against i18n Activity documents.
Current Reviews
Documents Being Tracked
This page is no longer current. Look here: New Radar Page
This page is frozen in time. If you know of a document that we should be reviewing, please contact the chair to add it to the list.
Your comments can help spec developers address internationalization requirements most effectively.
