Just so we have this written down somewhere and we are all on the same page ... language codes in Slash will be locale codes, which are the two-letter, lowercase, ISO 639 codes for language, and two-letter, uppercase, ISO 3166 codes for country. Joined with an underscore. Five characters long. en_US, en_CA, de_DE, zh_CN, ja_JP. If we need to change our system later we will, but this is how it is for now. (Right now there is not much code in Slash to support languages, but we wanted to get the templates assigned languages in the database, at least.) -- Chris Nandor pu...@po... http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network pu...@os... http://osdn.com/ |

Couple of side notes. A template is bound to be uniq based on name,page,section and language. At some point updating the template tool for this would be a good idea, but hardly a big need at the moment. In users_prefs there is also a column for lang. Bother templates and users default to en_US. It would be a good idea at some point to drop into code_param a full list of all locale for someone to use to generate a list of possible locales. -Brian |

There is no full list, that I am aware of, except for perhaps putting together all permutations of the two ISO lists. -- Chris Nandor pu...@po... http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network pu...@os... http://osdn.com/ |
