I believe it's the process of planning and developing products so that they can be changed to meet the requirements of specific local languages and cultures.

i18n stands for internationalization. It's not a product - it's a process. It's used in nearly all famous projects like KDE or GNOME. You have for example http://i18n.kde.org/ |
