Bodo language locale for India

Yesterday saw http://tdil-dc.in/index.php?option=com_vertical&parentid=70&lang=en

(1) Initially CLDR had provision for building locale data for 15 Indian languages and with the TDIL efforts Bodo language has been included in CLDR 1.9.

Reference http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml

Bodo does not have 2-digit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes 
also most of the LC_TIME field in earlier patch were just copy of mr_IN locale, actually it differs lot from Marathi http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml

Added alayaran@gmail.com as a contributor in brx_IN file

sir our bodo language uses Devanagari but not all bodo words are exactly like Hindi...
http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml
in this link what are generated from brx_IN is all Hindi words. which file to modify to exactly see the bodo words?

http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml is standard CLDR file for Bodo language.
Based on this i have prepared brx_IN locale file, we should follow above file

copying some text from above file for you

That's interesting.
Do you have any reference for this. i.e. dictionary image etc.
We can report bug against Unicode CLDR giving reference and ask them to correct it.
Comment 6 Sanjib Narzary 2011-10-13 09:21:06 UTC
ok i will find all the words which have to be modified in the

and submit back to here..including all the photo images of the the related words from some of the anglo bodo dictionary...with authors name, book title, publishers name and year of publication...
Comment 7 Sanjib Narzary 2011-10-13 09:23:44 UTC

http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD

Bodo language locale for India

Updated as per suggestions Sanjib.

Once upstream developer commit brx_IN in git, it will appear at http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD it will take some time
Comment 9 Sanjib Narzary 2011-10-15 07:40:54 UTC
waited for two days to commit but brx_IN is not listed in 
http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD
normally how much days it will take to commit...

wish you a very happy diwali...:)
Comment 13 Pravin S 2011-10-26 15:54:39 UTC
Sanjib, Happy diwali to you as well :)
lets hope this will get committed soon in glibc upstream.
Comment 14 Sanjib Narzary 2011-11-16 18:04:38 UTC
brx_In has been added in Ubuntu glibc today.
waiting for commit in glibc at sourceware too...
Comment 15 Pravin S 2011-11-17 05:21:05 UTC
I think they patches there glibc package, but anyway it is more important to get it commit in upstream. then it will automatically go every OS using glibc. :)

I can try for Fedora but lets wait for upstream first, anyone here?
Comment 16 Sanjib Narzary 2011-11-17 09:51:51 UTC
ok thank you for the information.i will wait for the commit.fedora and xo
is my first preference :)

I added the file.
Comment 19 Pravin S 2011-12-23 05:27:19 UTC
thank you for commit.
Now only 3 locale remaining to complete 22 official Indian languages locale in glibc. (santali,manipuri and dogri).

Hoping to get that information soon and complete this important milestone :)
