Thank you for the suggestion.
I am not familiar about how to connect a type of language to that of local data.
What I thought was that there was am_ET.xml in the pool of locale data:
http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/trunk/i18npool/source/localedata/data/
So, I mistakenly jumped into the idea that that should be am_ET instead of am.
Looking for other languages, I see:
de_AT.xml for German in AUSTRIA
de_CH.xml for German in SWITZERLAND
de_DE.xml for German in GERMANY
de_LI.xml for German in LIECHTENSTEIN
de_LU.xml for German in LUXEMBOURG
http://www.iso.org/iso/english_country_names_and_code_elements
While a download file for German is:
OOo_3.1.0_Win32Intel_install_de.exe
Therefore, I was wrong about that.
The language code 'am', instead of am_ET, is sufficient for Amharic.
Is that correct?

Tora

Yuji DOI used 'am' for Amharic at the moment. There was no problem.
For more appropriate implementation under current circumstances,
it would be better if they use am_ET, instead of am.
