Hi all, I think the regional variants are closely connected to several outstanding issues we have.
1. The docs on the LO site point out that there will be a variant of English connected with Oxford English Dictionary pronunciation (for UK): http://erack.org/blog/archives/30-LibreOffice-goes-BCP-47.html This is just a kind of user rules I had in mind when writing about multiple rule sets. I can easily imagine US English with Chicago Manual of Style guidelines added, for example. Therefore, I think that we should treat regional variants just like LO, and allow adding additional rule sets as regional variants. We could have multiple regional variants active at the same time, though. 2. Simple German, just like Basic English or ASD Simplified Technical English seem to be very similar to regional variants but without any countries to start with. We should have a simple solution for them, to include such rules in our code base. I do not know whether they should inherit the generic rules for a language but it should not be excluded, I guess.
