Re[2]: tlug: I18l?

Nope :)

It's not quite an abbreviation, in the sense that you're thinking.  It's "I" + 
18 letters + "n", not "sounding out" the 8 as part of the original word.  And I 
think it most likely is a typo.

>Yeah, so is i18l a typo?  I think it should be i18n.

But if it means "internationalization," isn't it supposed to be il8n, not
i18n?
