Done. CLDR bug #962 (audit issues #1378 and #1379). > > 3. gregorian:MonthsOfYear.Month.MonthID // may > > Formally, both variants are permissible. Bit of ambiguity here.

It isn't too uncommon for CLDR to err somewhat in such matters, after all. Take the issue of startday of en_GB (present in this audit) for example. Or error in CLDR be_BY currency formats (CLDR issue #963). FWIW, GLIBC locale has non-CLDR version, too.

Speaking *strictest*, Belarusian grammar doesn't regard names of days and months as proper nouns, so CLDR is possibly bit more correct here, disregarding that names are often capitalised in definitions like this, with no consideration for grammars' rules. Your decision, I think. > I assume OOo's BYR CurrencySymbol р. instead of BYR is correct? Please > include that in your CLDR bug report then. Well, after re-checking with CLDR tables and ooo locales, what ought to be here is (numbers of audit issues): #1383 CurrencyID // BYR "BYR" (as per ISO 4217 and per National Bank regulation) #1387 CurrencySymbol // BYR "руб." or "бел.руб." (there really is no such symbol at the moment, but the above abbreviations are the ones commonly used for that purpose. I have no idea whether these are acceptable w/r to string length, however. If not, then previous choice of "р." would be acceptable, too.) #1391 CurrencyName // BYR "беларускі рубель" (if name is to be in national language, then CLDR is right here) -regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
