Probably a bit late, but I would like to see this bug fixed if possible:
- https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg01070.html (BZ#19810)

Also on the features side, it would be nice to get the ca_ES@valencia
and de_LI locales, they have already been posted a few months ago, so I
think they just need a final review:
- https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg01267.html
- https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg01266.html

Also, is it still find to commit ULPs updates like this one?
- https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-07/msg00054.html

Thanks,
Aurelien
