2. The setting of the the thousand separator and the decimal point.
There seems to be multiple acceptable usages. For example all of the
following seem to be correct:

50 000.05
50,000.05

EN

50.000,05

FR

50 000.05
50.000,05

FR again


Just my two (Euro-)cents

This does not give any answer. If we are writing international
material, could we come up with a LibreOffice style? Which one should
we adopt for documentation, website, marketing materials that are
international?

Cheers

Marc


For punctuation, and the currency, it all depends on the language the
documentation is in.

Not only, a documentation can be in French but the place of the decimal mark will be different if it is used in Belgium, Switzerland or Burkina Faso, and then should be adapted.

Kind regards
