Just wanted to share two of my favorite tricks for finding localized
language names.

This could be helpful for those of you working on the Windows
Installer PO files.  Some of the languages are not necessarily
familiar to you.

1) Look it up in the ISO639 or ISO-639-3 PO fiels for the relevant language.

2) Look up the Language article in Englsih Wikipedia, check out the
left hand bar for an interwiki link to the same article in another
language's Wikipedia.
