Hello
You are listed as the contact for the Estonian locale for Estonia
(et_EE) in glibc. This is the information I have available:
% Estonian language locale for Estonia
% according to EVS 8:1993
% Source: Estonian Informatics Fund
% Address: To-nisma:gi 8, Tallinn
% EE0100 Estonia
% Tel: +372 - 2 - 681012
% Fax: +372 - 2 - 681012
% Contact: Tiit Tammiste
% Email: tiit@eif.ee
% Language: et
% territory: EE
% Revision: 4.3
% Date: 1996-10-15
% Application: general
% Users: general
% Repertoiremap: mnemonic.ds
% Charset: ISO-8859-1
% Distribution and use is free, also
% for commercial purposes.
Because it is seven years since the email address was operating, I
copy a few other email addresses found using Google
A current user of the et_EE locale claim that the default charset is
wrong. It is ISO-8859-1 now, but he claim that it should be
ISO-8859-15.
Do you agree with the reporter? Please look at
<URL:http://bugs.debian.org/208238>. for more info.
If you got information to add, please reply to this email with copies
to all the addresses. I copy this email to the Debian request
tracking system, the submitter and the glibc maintainer mailing list
to let them know about the problem.
