------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 8 14:09:55 +0000 2007 ------- The reasons why I retargeted this are: 1. I personally don't have time to work on this right now, I'm busy with other things. 2. We are short before UI freeze, which is Nov-15, see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease24 3. Including all of the requested locales would need some research whether MS defined some new LangIDs for Sami, additionally to the already known ones, see below. If not, new IDs in the user space would have to be created. New mappings would be needed anyway. 4. I don't have a CWS open anymore that is UI/translation relevant where I could add language list box entries. (btw, localized names are up to the localization teams and not relevant here, we add only English entries to the resource files) 5. If someone had such a CWS for this, it would have to go through QA before UI freeze, QA people are already overloaded for OOo2.4 6. Additional obstacle in case we could push this in somewhere: svx/source/dialog/langtab.src, where the list box entries are defined, will be moved to svtools/source/misc/langtab.src upon integration of CWS langstatusbar. Release engineering would have to take extra care of that and merge entries from the than dead file to the new file. So, to solve this: 1. We'll have to find someone who can work on this. 2./4./5. In a very timely manner on a CWS that is scheduled to be certainly integrated until UI freeze. With English list box entries that conform to the "Language (Country)" convention we use. 3. To not have to come up with yet other LangID definitions, we should use and add list box entries only for the ones we already have defined, see below. This would also restrict changes to the svx/source/dialog/langtab.src file and we wouldn't have to touch the i18npool module. 6. The responsible developer must keep an eye on integration of the CWS if that happens after CWS langstatusbar was integrated. The list of the currently available LangID definitions with ISO code mappings: #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_INARI 0x243B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_INARI, "smn", "FI" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_LULE_NORWAY 0x103B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_LULE_NORWAY, "smj", "NO" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_LULE_SWEDEN 0x143B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_LULE_SWEDEN, "smj", "SE" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_NORTHERN_FINLAND 0x0C3B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_NORTHERN_FINLAND, "se", "FI" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_NORTHERN_SWEDEN 0x083B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_NORTHERN_SWEDEN, "se", "SE" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_SKOLT 0x203B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_SKOLT, "sms", "FI" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_SOUTHERN_NORWAY 0x183B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_SOUTHERN_NORWAY, "sma", "NO" }, #define LANGUAGE_SAMI_SOUTHERN_SWEDEN 0x1C3B { LANGUAGE_SAMI_SOUTHERN_SWEDEN, "sma", "SE" }, Adding corresponding entries to the langtab.src file is easy once we have suitable strings, just that someone has to do it and all the administrative work related to CWSs. I'll ask on IRC and on [EMAIL PROTECTED] if someone could take over. Thanks for understanding.
