--- Comment #9 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> 2011-09-06 18:15:46 UTC --- Bug 164 *started* on subjects besides category sorting -- "This problem is most visible in the rise of Categories, but present in every automatic list, like Allpages or the list of registered editors." It was later narrowed for some reason when only category sorting got implemented. Since bug 164 has a billion comments and is just too noisy, this bug seems to be taking on its original role, rarefied explicitly to an overarching tracking bug. Much of this core infrastructure is implemented by the Collation class, already committed for bug 164, but only hooked up to categories for actual use and storage, and with some limitations on what locales are available from a straight configuration. Key things to do: * actually allow use of locale-specific collations _without writing additional code_ when the collation is already provided by our libraries (currently there is no way to request a locale collation from the intl extension, as only "root" can be selected without writing an extension to process a different key name) * (probably) make reasonably sanely automatic use of content-language locales, so site administrators don't have to set both a language *and* a collation for most default cases * make sure that non-category things that need to do locale sorting have access to it and make use of it (seems to be tracking bug 30672?) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
