It implements the original hyphenation algorithm of TeX with extensions (I don't know what those are), but it does not have the rules for hyphenating the different languages; these are maintained as a package for TeX Live and other distributions (I have been one of the maintainers for the past three years). It contains hyphenation patterns for over 60 languages; the ones for "major" languages have been extensively tested by one generation of TeX users and are probably of very high quality: some of them actually come from major publishers or researchers of the language at hand (Oxford Univeristy Press for British English, for example). See http://tug.org/tex-hyphen/ -- the page is admittedly rather empty, but has pointers and links to all the relevant information.
