------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Feb 18 06:26:30 -0800 2005 ------- Hi Soeren, > Should these be localised? What do they do? > <LC_COLLATION ref="en_US"/> > <LC_SEARCH ref="en_US"/> > <LC_TRANSLITERATION ref="en_US"/> LC_COLLATION defines the collation algorithm(s) to be used and the possible transliterations within. The "alphanumeric" algorithm together with the IGNORE_CASE transliteration specified in en_US.xml uses the ICU collation, which is sufficient for most languages and covers Western languages almost perfectly. You need only to define something different if for some reasons you need a special treatment, but then also have to implement an algorithm or provide the collation rule set, like done for CJK languages. LC_SEARCH defines the possible transliterations that can be used for a search. Also here, IGNORE_CASE should be sufficient for Western languages. LC_TRANSLITERATION defines the transliteration modules for a language. Again, for Western languages the IGNORTE_CASE, LOWERCASE_UPPERCASE and UPPERCASE_LOWERCASE should be all there is to it. CJK languages are more complicated. So yes, it should be fine to have them all refer en_US. @Jacob: > This sounds like transliteration rules (for example from > Greek, Russian or Arabic to Faroese) No, don't confuse transliteration with translation. Transliteration is about changing characters (uppercase <-> lowercase, or other forms) within one language.
