Hello dear developers, some of you might be aware of the fact that symfony uses the I18N data files from prado framework. This is because we believe in the fact that we shouldn't redo what others have done.
Unfortunately there have been no updates for 3 years now on prado side. So I decided to regenerate the I18N files myself. Because I don't know how the prado folks did this, I somehow reverse engineered what they did (which is very very basic) and even tried to iron out mistakes they did and nobody noticed. Additionally there have been plenty of changes to the data, but from my first checks my new files look better for every single locale. But I cannot check everything. Especially for languages I don't speak, fonts I don't have and calendars I never heard of yet. I do assume that the contents is correct; even if it is not (typos) I would recommend to report them to http://unicode.org/cldr/ directly. So it would be up to us th check that defaults are treated in symfony correctly, and nothing is missing due to merging errors So just play around with it and send me your findings. You will find the data files here: http://blog.hma-info.de/content/stuff/new_i18n_data.zip And you might want to read more about my adventure with the files in my blog post: http://blog.hma-info.de/2009/01/27/prado-i18n-an-open-source-tale-with-happy-end/ Ah and by the way, updating the I18N files is on the whishlist for 1.3. http://symfony.uservoice.com/pages/symfony So you do the whole community a favour by checking it. Fabian PS: If there is positive feedback I will add it to the symfony 1.3 branch. If there is demand and no negative feedback we will discuss if we put it to the 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 releases as well. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
