SharePoint 2007: MOSS and WSS Language Packs & Availability

If you are like me and work with clients from various cultures or who have requirements for multi-lingual environments, then you will welcome the information posted on the SharePoint team blog regarding the planned availability for Language Packs for both MOSS 2007 and WSSv3. 

Unfortunately I misread the chart when I first saw the article and thought the language pack for French was coming with the Beta 2 TR.  Our team has been looking for that one as we do quite a bit of work with clients who require both French and English.  But at least I can see that it will be available upon release which eases my mind a bit.

Now if only we could only get more detailed documentation on the use of resources and variations for creating multilingual environments with SharePoint 2007.

Also mega props to the SharePoint team for keeping their weblog up to date with regular and interesting posts on the new release.  It’s not an easy thing to do when struggling with bug fixes, documentation and major releases and it’s very much appreciated by those of us that eagerly watch for new information to be released as we continue to work our way through pre-release development projects.
