Hi moyogo,
I'll send the JCA form asap.
Good. Btw, what is your full name, so I can look it up in the list of
approved assignments?
1. The ThousandSeparator is ' ' non-breaking space. Thanks for
noticing
the
empty one.
The format codes have to be adapted to use it. I'll do that.
2. The ListSeparator is ' ; '.
The separator should be one character only, I'll remove the
surrounding
blanks.
3. I set the negative currency form to
<FormatCode>[CURRENCY] # ##0,00;[RED]-[CURRENCY] #
##0,00</FormatCode>
Also the codes not having [RED] negatives probably should be adapted,
I'll do.
4. The CurrencySymbol is now "F", althought "Fc" is often
encountered.
Which means that also the LC_FORMAT replaceTo attribute should use
'F',
will do. Btw, I assigned the MS-LangID 0x0639 to ln-CD, so it
reads now
replaceTo="[$F-639]".
5. The IndexKey is now A-E Ɛ F-O Ɔ P-Z
Fine.
Regarding the collation :
the alphabetical order is the most common one I have encountered.
The morphological order (ln_morph) is recommended by some
linguists so
it should
be available.
But I think the alphabetical order (ln_charset) should be the
default,
unless there’s an official order that is set by decree or such,
which
hasn’t
happened.
Since we don't have a "Morphological" collation algorithm yet, not
even
in the user interface, would that be a proper name? The alphabetical
order usually is called "Alphanumeric". Note that most languages
don't
use a "Character Set" order, but have alphanumeric instead.
The morphological order also resembles somewhat that of the hu_HU
locale
where a "charset" collation is used. As I'm absolutely not
familiar with
Lingala, could the alphabetical order be called
"Alphanumeric" (and the
collation data file be named ln_alphanumeric.txt) and the
morpholigical
order be called "Character Set" (and the file be named
ln_charset.txt)
instead? That way we wouldn't need an additional algorithm name
and UI
entry.
The IndexKey element then should follow whatever we decide here
and we
may as well need two elements.
I noticed the percent format codes have a blank between digits and
the
% character. This is usually not the case and the percent character
immediately follows the number, like in 0% . Intended?
Btw, the Locale element had the attribute allowUpdateFromCLDR="yes",
which should only be set if normative locale data is available in the
CLDR and the locale data may be updated semi-automatically. As we
didn't
do a comparison yet I defined that to "no".
