Re: [PATCH] locales: ay_PE: rename Aymara locale


Strongest Possible Objection to this change from a technical contact
for the Aymara localization community and the contributor of the
locale (me).

Also maintainer of a Pootle instance with extensive Aymara translations:

http://translate.sugarlabs.org/ayc/

iso-code "ay" represents a language group, whereas "ayc" represent the
variation spoken in Peru.  A more specific designation was chosen for
developing the glibc locale after consultation with multiple
indigenous language organizations (e.g. runasimi.org) in order to
avoid confusion between independent efforts in Peru and Bolivia to
begin localization of mutual unintelligible language variants.

Hoping that this is adequate for you to drop this idea, but I will
muster further arguments and evidence as needed to win the day on this
one.
