Bodo language locale for India

Yesterday saw http://tdil-dc.in/index.php?option=com_vertical&parentid=70&lang=en

(1) Initially CLDR had provision for building locale data for 15 Indian languages and with the TDIL efforts Bodo language has been included in CLDR 1.9.

Reference http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml

Bodo does not have 2-digit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes
also most of the LC_TIME field in earlier patch were just copy of mr_IN locale, actually it differs lot from Marathi http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml

Added <email address hidden> as a contributor in brx_IN file

http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml is standard CLDR file for Bodo language.
Based on this i have prepared brx_IN locale file, we should follow above file

copying some text from above file for you

<day type="sun">रबिबार</day> <day type="mon">समबार</day> <day type="tue">मंगलबार</day>
<day type="wed">बुदबार</day>
<day type="thu">बिसथिबार</day>
<day type="fri">सुखुरबार</day>
<day type="sat">सुनिबार</day>

That's interesting.
Do you have any reference for this. i.e. dictionary image etc.
We can report bug against Unicode CLDR giving reference and ask them to correct it.

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

ok i will find all the words which have to be modified in the
> http://www.unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/brx.xml
and submit back to here..including all the photo images of the the related words from some of the anglo bodo dictionary...with authors name, book title, publishers name and year of publication...

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

by the way brx_In is not listed here...
http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD
what i need to do to be listed in there??

Bodo language locale for India

Updated as per suggestions Sanjib.

Once upstream developer commit brx_IN in git, it will appear at http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD it will take some time

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

waited for two days to commit but brx_IN is not listed in
http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=tree;f=localedata/locales;hb=HEAD
normally how much days it will take to commit...

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

is anyone listening this thread??

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Waiting a bit for upstream to comment/accept. I'll add an Ubuntu patch for it otherwise.

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

16 November is our literary day...hope this 16/11/2011 is the memorable day :) our team will be very happy to know this news..........

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

brx_In has been added in Ubuntu glibc today.
waiting for commit in glibc at sourceware too...

[Pravin-d-s (pravin-d-s)]

I think they patches there glibc package, but anyway it is more important to get it commit in upstream. then it will automatically go every OS using glibc. :)

I can try for Fedora but lets wait for upstream first, anyone here?

[Sanjib Narzary (alayaran)]

ok thank you for the information.i will wait for the commit.fedora and xo
is my first preference :)
