<p>The Unicode CLDR provides key building blocks for software to support
the world's languages. CLDR is by far the largest and most extensive
standard repository of locale data. This data is used by a wide
spectrum of companies for their software internationalization
and localization: adapting software to the conventions of different
languages for such common software tasks as formatting of dates,
times, time zones, numbers, and currency values; sorting text;
choosing languages or countries by name; and many others.</p>

<p>The first CLDR version under the sponsorship of the Unicode
Consortium was version 1.1. The CLDR project was originally
developed under the sponsorship of the Linux Application Development
Environment (aka LADE) Workgroup of the
<a href="http://www.freestandards.org/">Free Standards Group</a>'s
<a href="http://www.openi18n.org/">OpenI18N</a> (formerly known
as Linux Internationalization Initiative or Li18nux) team. CLDR
1.0 was approved on 2004.01.16 by the OpenI18N steering committee.
The founding members of the workgroup were
<a href="http://www.ibm.com/">IBM</a>,
<a href="http://www.sun.com/">Sun</a> and
<a href="http://www.openoffice.org/">OpenOffice.org</a>.</p>
<p>Thanks to the following people for their contributions to
the CLDR 1.0 and LDML 1.0: Helena Shih Chapman, Mark Davis,
Simon Dean, Deborah Goldsmith, Steven R Loomis, Kentaroh Noji,
George Rhoten, Baldev Soor, Michael Twomey, Ram Viswanadha and
Vladimir Weinstein. Special thanks to Akio Kido, Hideki Hiura,
Tom Garland, and the OpenI18N organization for the sponsorship
of this activity, and to the ICU team for hosting the CVS repository
and collecting and managing the data for the project. </p>
