Press Release Body = Leading UK translation service provider Lingo24 has announced a
technology partnership with XML-INTL, a pioneering international software company.
The partnership will allow for full integration of the two companies' systems for
managing translation and marks the beginning of an intensive period of
collaboration.

"We are delighted to have begun work with Lingo24," said Bob Willans, director of
XML-INTL, "because of their excellent reputation within the translation industry,
and the quality of their technology department. Their practical experience will be
invaluable to our team as we perfect our software solutions for the translation
industry."

Lingo24 CTO Jos Shepherd commented: "Standardisation on XML as a text content
storage and interchange technology is taking place in all industries and XML is
already tremendously important to the localisation industry. XML-INTL are at the
cutting edge of XML use in localisation and complement Lingo24's own team very
well."

XML is becoming the file format of choice for publishers because it eliminates both
direct and indirect costs associated with dealing with proprietary file formats.
Integrating XTM, XML-INTL's next generation translation memory software, with a
content management system (CMS), allows companies to make translation just one more
step in the workflow of producing content, and thereby to reduce the costs involved
in managing multi-lingual content.

Lingo24's Operations Director, Jack Waley-Cohen, foresees even closer collaboration
in future: "Our partnership with XML-INTL is a meeting of minds. We are innovators
in the translation industry and XML-INTL are leaders in the development of standards
for the translation industry. We have exciting plans and believe our current
partnership is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of what we can achieve
together.\"
