Earlier this week I met Tom Hudec who will do the czech interface (cz). main interface: Currently the low level interface is dutch, but that one will be english later this year. This only affects those who write generic styles. (conversion can be done by a perl script that is currently under testing). typeseting language: One can take a look at the lang-* files to see what languages are supported. Languages are grouped into their parent (origin) language. Please report any errors in these files (labels and so). It is possible to implement language specifics. Currently only german has language specifics attached ("e->\"e and alike). Additional patterns can be loaded in the file cont-usr.tex (format generation). if needed, the default language and local initializations can be set in cont-sys.tex. Please inform me of encoding/font/other problems with languages.
