RE: [Rainbowportal-devel] Arabic Language Switching & errors

[Jeffrey M. <je...@my...>]

If you can make a list of all cultures you would like I can duplicate the
invariant culture file and fill the void.
I don't know where Palestininan language or culture is; please let me know.
Also let me know what Arabic cultures we need to break out.
ar 0x0001 Arabic 
ar-DZ 0x1401 Arabic - Algeria 
ar-BH 0x3C01 Arabic - Bahrain 
ar-EG 0x0C01 Arabic - Egypt 
ar-IQ 0x0801 Arabic - Iraq 
ar-JO 0x2C01 Arabic - Jordan 
ar-KW 0x3401 Arabic - Kuwait 
ar-LB 0x3001 Arabic - Lebanon 
ar-LY 0x1001 Arabic - Libya 
ar-MA 0x1801 Arabic - Morocco 
ar-OM 0x2001 Arabic - Oman 
ar-QA 0x4001 Arabic - Qatar 
ar-SA 0x0401 Arabic - Saudi Arabia

Hi,
As a quick fix you can duplicate the current arabic resource and name
it as arabic jordanian This should allow you select it as language on
site settings.
Languages available are loaded from avaiable resource list.
As a second step you can make changes on resources to match
differencies (or just remove all keys you wanto to fall back to ar
neutral) This hosld also fix the date problem.
If not please give more info about this
Sincerely

Manu
