Ths is a big, big, big deal ...

The EU requires this stuff by law and a lot of the necessary patches have been languishing, I have heard.

Keep in mind:

  • Germany is the biggest non-Enlglish-speaking Drupal market and German the second most used internet language.
  • France is having something of a Drupal awakening.
  • Also keep in mind, the 25-member EU has a larger population than the United States.
  • These are *not* minority, minor-player issues.
  • Call to action: Other open source shopping cart and e-commerce systems are gaining ground in Europe.

    • I give this a +100 if I may. This and any other internationalization issue.

    - hc.
