Many Wordpress blog installations use Disqus as their system to let the users comment on the posts.

Disqus supports localization by adapting the texts according to the current language used by Wordpress.

However, there are differences in the locale language identifiers used by Wordpress and Disqus.

This class can fix the problem by mapping Wordpress locale language identifiers to the respective identifiers used by Disqus.
