Currencies offered in OOo are part of the locale data of a specific locale. So,
as long as the locale data does not exist, the currency will not be offered in
the list. A user can always create a customized number format though, such as
#,##0.00 [$XOF]
where the enclosing [$...] designates a currency format, opposed to a plain
string to be appended such as 0"XOF".
Locale data files can quite easily be generated with the generator
available at http://www.it46.se/localegen/
For technical details and semantics of elements please see the
generator's documentation and the comments in the locale data DTD file
http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/trunk/i18npool/source/localedata/data/locale.dtd
and as a sample locale data file for example the en_US locale
http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/trunk/i18npool/source/localedata/data/en_US.xml
Btw, the only normative reference for ISO 4217 currency codes being available
online is
http://www.iso.org/iso/support/faqs/faqs_widely_used_standards/widely_used_standards_other/currency_codes/currency_codes_list-1.htm
Regarding "Songa": that's "Sango" instead (at least in the English UI), a
language of Central African Republic.
The only thing I can do with this issue is set the 'needhelp' keyword for locale
data to be created. Each locale data file should be attached to a separate issue
though, so we can process them individually.
