ENLASO Presents at 27th Internationalization and Unicode Conference

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - March 23, 2005 - ENLASO Corporation, a provider of enterprise language solutions, today announced its participation in the 27th Internationalization and Unicode Conference, April 6 - 8, 2005, in Berlin, Germany.

Hosted by the Unicode Consortium, the conference brings together software industry corporations and researchers dedicated to developing and implementing the Unicode Standard, a foundation for successful internationalization and localization of Web sites and software.

Represented by Localization Solutions Architect, Yves Savourel, ENLASO will present three sessions including:

• Web Internationalization: Standards and Practices
In concert with Tex Texin, Savourel will address the architecture of the Web with respect to character processing and the facilities of markup languages for internationalization. With a focus on developing multilingual data in HTML, XHTML, XML, and CSS environments, Yves will discuss global interoperability standards.

• XML and Localization
A popular Savourel presentation, XML and Localization explores the advantages of XML in translation and localization. Using dynamic examples, Savourel will expand on how to take advantage of XML, even when localizable data is not in XML format. Savourel will also discuss the value and capabilities of XML-enabled tools and technologies.

• ENLASO's Rainbow Localization Tools
Savourel will introduce various tools from ENLASO's suite of localization freeware. Demonstrating how the tools benefit engineers in localization processes, Yves will explore the newer functionalities including: Unicode-based encoding conversion utilities; a filter based on regular expressions that use the Unicode characters properties; filters for HTML, Java, and Windows RC formats; and extraction to XLIFF.

ENLASO's internationally recognized experts actively participate in the development of industry standards that benefit both the customer and the technologies used to improve localization processes worldwide. Today, ENLASO is actively involved with LISA (Localization Industry Standards Association), UNICODE, OASIS (Organization promoting the advancement of XML), ATA (American Translators Association), and the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).

"ENLASO is pleased to participate in this industry-defining event," said John Watkins, Chief Operating Officer, ENLASO Corporation. "We are committed to driving localization process advancements that improve the international business performance of both the industry and our clients."
