 * From: Nik Clayton <nik@nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk>

 * Consistency.  Specifically,

To what end?

 *   3.  Consistency with the IANA specifications at
 *       http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/character-sets (which
 *       is why we just went from zh_TW.BIG5 to zh_TW.Big5).

And exactly where in it does it says "EUC" is a preferred name for
Japanese EUC?

 * That discussion passed me by, and there's been ample time in the discussion
 * on -doc for someone from the JA team to bring this up.

I'll ask them again.

 * It's change now to get it over and done with, while the doc repository
 * is still relatively small (although it's growing every day, thanks to
 * the efforts of the FDP volunteers).

The point is that I don't have any confidence that this is going to be
the last change of the sort.  (Having witnessed the ja_JP.EUC -> ja
change first hand.)
