I'm a german web-designer living in Turkey.
Sometimes I use opensource software like gallery2 or WP to have customers
have some
nice web albums or blog. The turkish translation files of such opensource
software
usually use gettext and .po files for i18n and are always a bit behind the
translation
status of other european languages.
I decided to work a bit on some of those tr.po files on my local linux box
(opensuse 10.2 with apache 2.x mysql 5.x and php 5.2.0). But when I
started the
test phase in turkish I couldn't test because of strange errors.
I contacted the forum of gallery2 and after investigating the problem I
stumbled over an answer of bug #35050 at bugs.php.net:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35050
and its status: WONT FIX
Now that's really great. It means that turkish hosting providers cannot
use php5 at all!
And as of the news on php.net php4 will not be supported or developed any
further
after the end of 2007! Will Turks really have now to wait for a php6?
When will that come out?
That's seems to me to be a sort of discrimination of turkish language in
php5.
Is it technical so difficult to develop a patch for this bug?
Sincerely
