Fluenta is an open source tool designed to simplify the translation and localization of DITA projects combining two open standards from OASIS: DITA and XLIFF.
Fluenta implements the workflow described in the article Use XLIFF to Translate DITA Projects, making it easy to manage the translation side of your DITA projects according to the procedure recommended by the OASIS DITA Adoption Technical Committee (see the official TC publication, available in PDF at OASIS and in HTML format at ditatranslation.com).
