We simply do not have the manpower to do that.
I don't want to repeat myself, but I think we are enough people* to have at least two variants (es_ES, es_LAT).
I believe Linux does not support 3 letter country codes. See man locale, LANG definition. Reference:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html
All language codes I can see in "/usr/lib/locale/" are two letter, none has three (ie: xx_YY).
Linux may be following ISO 639-1 for the first group of letters (language). The second group I think represents country, I believe following ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (which is two letter):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2
Three letter country codes (which I don't know if Linux supports) can be found here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-3
But "LAT" is not listed there. The official source is here:
https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search
But "LAT" doesn't find anything.
If someone knows something else, please say.
So the current team translates to Spanish. Whatever that is. At least we try. It is our agreed and written policy since we started :-)
We were few people back then.
We started in 2007, before vertaal was created, and we were very active. I have archived about 4500 emails with our discussions.
