Hello

In glibc problem report 4197, you claim that the currency symbol for
croatian should come after the value, not before as it currently do
with the hr_HR locale in GNU libc.  The glibc maintainers are less
willing to change the locales unless the correct value can be verified
from some official source.  Do you have a source that can back up your
suggested change?

Did you try to contact the original author for this locale?  If I read
it correctly, it is Tomislav Vujec <tvujec@carnet.hr>.  I try to copy
this email to him, and hope we will reply.

Your bug report at
<URL:http://bugs.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=glibc&pr=4197>
only the placement of Kn for positive numbers:

  '245.21 Kn'

But what is formatting for negative numbers?
 
While I work on the hr_HR locale, I want to add some test cases to the
runtime test og glibc, to make sure the result stays correct.  Can you
verify the formatting of these values?  Can you supply a source?

  value   hr_HR
  123     '123.00 Kn'
  -123    '- 123.00 Kn'
  1234    '1 234.00 Kn'
  -1234   '- 1 234.00 Kn'

I copy this email to the glibc development list as well.
