new language region for World Domination, ISO aware language region

[psl]

Ubuntu 18.04.2

I miss an easy way to configure system locale to be ISO aware. I would like to see pre-configured package for this purpose.

When I install Ubuntu, installer doesn't ask about region. I guess it uses timezone information and applies best effort to configure new system. My example, I am in Czech Republic, Timezone is Europe/Prague, so language is set to Czech and regional formats are set to Czech and. Great configuration for secretary or poem writer...

As a side effect, when I go to CLI and do "ls -l", I see this output and I really don't like it:

# ls -l
total 15208
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15570124 lis 22 14:16 x.log

I like this output:

# LC_ALL=C ls -l
total 15208
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15570124 Nov 22 14:16 x.log

We live in global World, many servers run in different clouds and are managed by international teams, so some unification is required.

In the past, I was able to switch my desktop from Czech to to English and after that tune some details, like switch time format from 12h to 24h format, etc. I cannot do this with Ubuntu 18.04 anymore. I have to select pre-configured settings from 18.04 list, like Czech or US-English or UK English, etc. I suggest to create new configuration, that will be English with ISO aware time and date formats, and use as much as global standards as possible, and deploy it with just selecting from menu (install additional languages and regions).

I can go to my file-system and tune my local configuration in /etc and rebuild locales. I believe it will be better to do it on system level, to create "locale package" for "World Domination", package that will be usable for all professionals who has to work in global environments in different time zones. You can call it World Domination or "IT professional" or "global ISO", or what ever you like...

BTW, this is my locale output, it is mix, chaos; it is result that was generated by switching options in GUI..:
