> Did you get the following:
>
> I notice that the languages are listed in
> <URL:http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html>. That is
> good, as it is a prerequest for getting the locale included in
> glibc.

> To get the new locales included, it is best if you supply complete
> and working locales for the three languages. It is also important
> to supply references standards or other (semi)official documents
> verifying that the submitted locale is correct.
>
> You suggest copying the nl_NL and de_DE locales, and edit the month
> and day names. It is probably better to use the 'copy' feature of
> locale files, to avoid duplicate information. It is probably best if
> you do this, and send us three locale files. Do you need help with
> this?

> I copy this to the glibc developers, to let them know about the status
> of this problem.
