------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Aug 18 21:38:21 -0700 2005 ------- Eike, Maybe someone realized that there are only 4000 people in Bhutan who speak Tibetan, changed it to Dzongkha but had no clue about LCIDs, I don't know. I think they simply got it wrong. Here there is a controversy regarding this. Dzongkha language uses Tibetan script and there is no Dzongkha script assigned in Uniocde. The work of supporting Dzongkha language in Microsoft was carried out in Bhutan by Dzongkha Development Authority with the help of Orient Foundation for a duration of 3 years.On the other hand, no work for supporting Tibetan in Microsoft has been carried out from scratch. They just worked on what was already created for Dzongkha support. Microsoft has made the mistake of calling Dzongkha as Tibetan-Bhutan.That's where they have made a mess and we are in the process of asking them to change it to Dzongkha. Do you happen to know of any document that was created using MS-Word or Excel, contains Dzongkha and where the text has some distinct LCID value assigned? Is there even Dzongkha selectable in any version? Nope. Till windows XP, there is no support. However we can use Dzongkha computing using Microsft office 2003. The number of Tibetan speaker in Bhutan is 1000 according to the research conducted by George Van Driem in "the Languages of the greater himalayan region". Infact there are more Tibetan speaker in New York compared to our country.
