Hi all
Does anyone see a pressing need for supporting ISO 639-2 language codes in
DateTime::Locale?
These are the three character codes instead of the two character ISO 639-1
codes, eg (pilfered straight from DT::Language):
# 639-1, 639-2(T), 639-2(B)
[ 'aa', 'aar' => 'Afar' ],
[ 'am', 'amh' => 'Amharic' ],
[ 'cz', 'ces', 'cze' => 'Czech' ],
[ 'de', 'deu', 'ger' => 'German' ],
...etc
So, any of the following would then return the "de_DE" locale:
DateTime::Locale->load("de_DE");
DateTime::Locale->load("deu_DE");
DateTime::Locale->load("ger_DE");
I can't see a great need for this, since ISO 639-1 is already fully
supported, but I'm open to comments; please don't just say "Hey, why not"
though - I don't want to bloat things any further unless there's a genuine
reason for adding this :)
Cheers,
Rich
