We have a rather odd issue here in South Africa. I alluded to it in another email to this list today. 1) The official number representation is that which is listed currently in the CLDR. ie space and comma. You will find most newspaper text in that format. 2) However, it causes much frustration for computer users who are, for whatever reason good or bad, used to number entry with the decimal point. There are already a number of bug reports related to this problem. On top of that all other languages in South Africa use the comma; decimal point notation. I'd love to be able to resolve this without having to make a decision :) > thx > Peter > > Peter Nugent ha scritto: > > Hi Dwayne > > thx for the feedback. > > > > What are the locales you wish to add ?
