Talk
Internationalization and Localization by Camilo Sperberg (https://twitter.com/unreal4u)

Your site works as a train. It is perfect and it works for your main audience until your boss shows up at your desk and wants you to make some "small" changes in order to launch the site in Saudi Arabia. Suddenly, hell breaks loose: you realize that your perfect working site doesn't offer proper UTF-8 support, and neither does it support proper date or currency formatting. As a child, your mother never informed you that there are people out there with names such as "Bølla Cañiupán". Even worse: 5 years ago nobody thought that the site would be that successful so nobody cared to even include basic translation support.

This talk will introduce you to take into account several important things, ranging from collation and charset usage in MySQL to some handy datetime functions in PHP and symbols you better can avoid in your website. We will also be reviewing some translations formats and its pros and cons, not to forget some handy tips in order to achieve easily a truly international site.
