            Bug ID: 24162
           Summary: ja_JP LC_TIME: era offset for Taisho GanNen and BC
                    direction
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.29
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: junji.morimitsu at hpe dot com
                CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Dear glibc maintainers,
Thank you for your work.
I would like to request update of 3 lines of ja_JP as follows.

        file: glibc-2.29/localedata/locales/ja_JP


1:  email bug-glibc-locales@gnu.org is not available.  Email was forwarded to
libc-locales@sources.redhat.com and I got a deliverly error.  Please remove the
obsolete email address.
(Also it is listed on https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Bugzilla%20Procedures)


2:  The offset of Taisho Gan Nen (1912) is '2', but it should be '1'.  Gan Nen
means the 1st year, Taisho started on 1912-07-30.

(I found this bug was listed as bug#11310)


3:  The direction of BC is '+', but it should be '-'.  The start_date
(-1/12/31) is the last day of BC.  The direction is backward.  However I cannot
show how to use this flag.  Only decoration?
