Here's what he said: Jordi Mallach: so Valencian is the naem of the Catalan language in the Valencian region Jordi Mallach: but there it is unanimously regarded as the same language by the scientific community Jordi Mallach: share iso code, etc. Jordi Mallach: there's a extreme right-wing movement that says it isn't Jordi Mallach: and invent a grammar, spelling and so on in an attempt to make Valencian diverge as much as possible from Catalan Jordi Mallach: that dictionary follows these rules Jordi Mallach: it is not official, not used anywhere, etc. Jordi Mallach: just by these people Jordi Mallach: so, we'd like to replace it with the official Valencian variant of the myspell dictionary we produce at Softcatalà (SC is the non-profit that translates most major free software projects to Catalan, and also does Valencian variants because of this conflict) Jordi Mallach: and the idea is to change the package name to myspell-ca-valencia Jordi Mallach: which is the BCP 47 locale name we're using Jordi Mallach: IFF SUSE argues that these people have the right to have their dictionary in the distro, I think it should be renamed to ca-valencia-racv or ca-valencia-unofficial or something like this, to make it clear it's not normative [...] Vincent Untz: I guess we won't do ca-valencia since that's not how the other packages for other languages are named; that'd be another bug Vincent Untz: ah Vincent Untz: but the naming is important because of catalan vs valencian in the name Vincent Untz: (I guess) Jordi Mallach: yeah, we need to make clear it's still a Catalan dictonary Jordi Mallach: http://websvn.softcatala.org/listing.php?repname=Corrector&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fresultats%2Fmyspell%2F#_trunk_resultats_myspell_ Jordi Mallach: you need to take the "avl" variant -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
