Internationalization

This is a collection of modules to extend Drupal core multilingual capabilities and be able to build real life multilingual sites. Some features:

• Taxonomy translation (both, per language terms and translatable terms)
• Multilingual variables
• Multilingual blocks (control visibility per language and translate title and content)
• Language selection (when you switch the site language you'll see only the content for that language)
• Requires the Variable module (Drupal 7)
