Hi Rangel,
At the danger of insulting large parts of the world I have a question
mostly from a personal interest.
How different is Portugese (PT) from Portugese Brazil (PT-BR)? Do you
think they need separate language wikis?
For example I can't imagine that we will ever have EN-UK or EN-AU as
there is only really spelling that is different.

Hi Peter,
We have too many language differences in our languages The portuguese
spoked on Portugal is the same to African countries, Madeira Island and
Canarian Island, and a little part of India(Goa,i think). Brazil was
discovered by Portugueses in 1500 and independent since 1822. Since
1822 the brazilian people lost the language contact, creating many
differences of terms, into computer terms the confusion is bigger. A
Portuguese and a Brazilian can understand one each other, but with
difficulties. Another motive to separate wiki PT and PT-BR is the number
of people that speak brazilian portuguese: 180 millions, this is major
that the sum of all people that spoke Portuguese from Portugal :)
If you check the locale of linux installation you will found pt and
pt-br. In the Suse installation too.
