Bug ID: 23831
Summary: nl_NL missing LC_NUMERIC thousands_sep
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: localedata
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: sourceware.org at troep dot com
CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org
Target Milestone: ---
Currently the thousands_sep is empty "" this should be changed to "."
I've compiled a small list of sources:

- Microsoft Windows also uses . as the default thousands separator.
- All our close neighbours use . (eg: nl_BE fr_BE de_DE da_DK)
Weird why no one bothered to file a bug for the last 22 year:
