+Ruby Internationalization and localization solution.
+
+Features:
+
+* translation and localization
+* interpolation of values to translations (Ruby 1.9 compatible syntax)
+* pluralization (CLDR compatible)
+* flexible defaults
+* bulk lookup
+* lambdas as translation data
+* custom key/scope separator
+* custom exception handlers
+* extensible architecture with a swappable backend
+
+Experimental, pluggable features:
+
+* lambda pluralizers stored as translation data
+* RFC4647 compliant locale fallbacks (with optional RFC4646 locale validation)
+* backend cache

+    #
+    # *LOOKUP*
+    #
+    # Translation data is organized as a nested hash using the upper-level keys
+    # as namespaces. <em>E.g.</em>, ActionView ships with the translation:
+    # <tt>:date => {:formats => {:short => "%b %d"}}</tt>.
+    #
+    # Translations can be looked up at any level of this hash using the key argument
+    # and the scope option. <em>E.g.</em>, in this example <tt>I18n.t :date</tt>
+    # returns the whole translations hash <tt>{:formats => {:short => "%b %d"}}</tt>.
+    #
+    # Key can be either a single key or a dot-separated key (both Strings and Symbols
+    # work). <em>E.g.</em>, the short format can be looked up using both:
+    #   I18n.t 'date.formats.short'
+    #   I18n.t :'date.formats.short'
+    #
+    # Scope can be either a single key, a dot-separated key or an array of keys
+    # or dot-separated keys. Keys and scopes can be combined freely. So these
+    # examples will all look up the same short date format:
+    #   I18n.t 'date.formats.short'
+    #   I18n.t 'formats.short', :scope => 'date'
+    #   I18n.t 'short', :scope => 'date.formats'
+    #   I18n.t 'short', :scope => %w(date formats)
+    #
+    # *INTERPOLATION*
+    #
+    # Translations can contain interpolation variables which will be replaced by
+    # values passed to #translate as part of the options hash, with the keys matching
+    # the interpolation variable names.
+    #
+    # <em>E.g.</em>, with a translation <tt>:foo => "foo {{bar}}"</tt> the option
+    # value for the key +bar+ will be interpolated into the translation:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :bar => 'baz' # => 'foo baz'
+    #
+    # *PLURALIZATION*
+    #
+    # Translation data can contain pluralized translations. Pluralized translations
+    # are arrays of singluar/plural versions of translations like <tt>['Foo', 'Foos']</tt>.
+    #
+    # Note that <tt>I18n::Backend::Simple</tt> only supports an algorithm for English
+    # pluralization rules. Other algorithms can be supported by custom backends.
+    #
+    # This returns the singular version of a pluralized translation:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :count => 1 # => 'Foo'
+    #
+    # These both return the plural version of a pluralized translation:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :count => 0 # => 'Foos'
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :count => 2 # => 'Foos'
+    #
+    # The <tt>:count</tt> option can be used both for pluralization and interpolation.
+    # <em>E.g.</em>, with the translation
+    # <tt>:foo => ['{{count}} foo', '{{count}} foos']</tt>, count will
+    # be interpolated to the pluralized translation:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :count => 1 # => '1 foo'
+    #
+    # *DEFAULTS*
+    #
+    # This returns the translation for <tt>:foo</tt> or <tt>default</tt> if no translation was found:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :default => 'default'
+    #
+    # This returns the translation for <tt>:foo</tt> or the translation for <tt>:bar</tt> if no
+    # translation for <tt>:foo</tt> was found:
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :default => :bar
+    #
+    # Returns the translation for <tt>:foo</tt> or the translation for <tt>:bar</tt>
+    # or <tt>default</tt> if no translations for <tt>:foo</tt> and <tt>:bar</tt> were found.
+    #   I18n.t :foo, :default => [:bar, 'default']
+    #
+    # *BULK LOOKUP*
+    #
+    # This returns an array with the translations for <tt>:foo</tt> and <tt>:bar</tt>.
+    #   I18n.t [:foo, :bar]
+    #
+    # Can be used with dot-separated nested keys:
+    #   I18n.t [:'baz.foo', :'baz.bar']
+    #
+    # Which is the same as using a scope option:
+    #   I18n.t [:foo, :bar], :scope => :baz
+    #
+    # *LAMBDAS*
+    #
+    # Both translations and defaults can be given as Ruby lambdas. Lambdas will be
+    # called and passed the key and options.
+    #
+    # E.g. assuming the key <tt>:salutation</tt> resolves to:
+    #   lambda { |key, options| options[:gender] == 'm' ? "Mr. {{options[:name]}}" : "Mrs. {{options[:name]}}" }
+    #
+    # Then <tt>I18n.t(:salutation, :gender => 'w', :name => 'Smith') will result in "Mrs. Smith".
+    #
+    # It is recommended to use/implement lambdas in an "idempotent" way. E.g. when
+    # a cache layer is put in front of I18n.translate it will generate a cache key
+    # from the argument values passed to #translate. Therefor your lambdas should
+    # always return the same translations/values per unique combination of argument
+    # values.
