If the Docs Project is able to complete a transition to Publican for the release notes for Fedora 10, many of our language codes will change to ISO standards. This includes moving from en_US to en-US, as in "Release_Notes-en-US.txt". It would probably be good if any tools used to spin or release the distribution get updated to support both of these options. I would suggest shifting them to use the ISO standard, en-US, first and the try falling back to en_US. That way, if we fail utterly and have to drop back to the old way of doing business, the results will still land properly.

Asgeir is working on updating the language list to the proper ISO codes now, I believe. That would certainly include ja-JP! :-)

I'm not an expert, and some codes would make more sense without a country-qualifier I guess (country qualifier is ISO-wise optional). bn_IN -> bn-IN ca -> ca-ES cs -> cs-CZ da -> da-DK de -> de-DE el -> el-GR es -> es-ES fi -> fi-FI fr -> fr-FR gu -> gu-IN he -> he-IL hi_IN -> hi-IN hr -> hr-HR hu -> hu-HU id -> id-ID it -> it-IT ja -> ja-JP ms -> ms-MY nb -> nb-NO nl -> nl-NL pa -> pa-IN pl -> pl-PL pt_BR -> pt-BR pt -> pt-PT ru -> ru-RU sk -> sk-SK sr -> sr-RS sr_Latn -> sr_Latn-RS sv -> sv-SE ta -> ta-IN uk -> uk-UA zh_CN -> zh-CN zh_TW -> zh-TW cheers, asgeir -- Fedora-trans-list mailing list Fedora-trans-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-trans-list
