Re: [Bug 330689] [NEW] New language: Kichwa

2009-02-18 Thread Kehan Harman
You'll probably have to petition SIL for that (the body that manages the ISO
list of languages). You'll find that Quechua (que) is a Macrolanguage
including a whole suite of other languages on:
http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=que
Do any of those correspond to your Ecuadoran (or is it Ecuadorese) dialect.
qu_EC may work otherwise.
and also qui is already taken by Quileute (see
http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=qui).

there's details about getting languages recognised on the SIL website (on
the left of any of the pages).
Cheers,
Kehan

 Public bug reported:

 I'm not 100% sure this is the correct package to file the bug under, but
 it's as close as I get...

 The language spoken by about 2-3 million natives in Ecuador is Kichwa,
 not Quechua.

 I've made a working dictionary for Kichwa but it's kind of hard adding
 it since the language is not on the list...

 could we open a qui / qi_EC language?
