Report Excerpt

The XML & Component Content Management Report 2008 looks at... Localization in Vasont

"Localization of content components is handled through a rather clunky process, where items are "handed-off" to an automated FTP site managed by Vasont or the translation vendor. The translation agency must access the components from FTP site, translate the content, and return the components to the FTP site for re-import into Vasont. This is a mostly automated process, but unfortunately, there is no intelligence in the components themselves to signal what content has changed, so customers with all but the most fine-grained content models will find this a rather clumsy and possibly expensive approach. "
