LibreOffice uses CLDR to the same extent (or more) as OpenOffice.org did. Just that it is not listed there (care to change that? ;-) In fact OOo contributed its locale data to the CLDR back when CLDR was created. However, CLDR does not provide all locale data LibreOffice needs, or differently, and is not a global cure for all locale problems. > Getting back to the initial question, would it be difficult to list the > languages each in their own language? See my reply there, for me as a developer adding language entries it would be at least more difficult. Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.
