The <lang>-<dialect> thing would appear to be the obvious choice; what's slightly less obvious is what to do about fallback. Three choices: - None - i.e. I say en-gb, I either get en-gb or nothing; - Best guess - I want en-gb, but I'm quite happy with en-us or en-au. I could specify en-gb and, if en-gb's not available but en-something else is, whatever's available gets chosen for me; - Preference list - I specify a (possibly) wildcarded list of what I want - e.g. en-gb,en-us,en* - and whichever match comes first is what I get. --Dave -- David Knell, Director, 3C Limited T: +44 20 3298 2000 E: d...@3c.co.uk W: http://www.3c.co.uk _______________________________________________ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org
