I'd been talking on a forum with a Linux database guy, and he mentioned that on the PostGres lists, people would "love to use *BSD" but the locale support is limited. Well, sure 'nough, `locale -a | wc -l` seems to be in the mid-200s here, and his systems have over 550 locales. I've probably not RTFM'ed enough, but I'm just looking for a short answer. What does FreeBSD need to have more locales*? I'm assuming the answer is, more people in more locations willing to take the time to RTFM and submit patches to $x team..... Discussion? Linkage? Slaps to the head? Kevin Kinsey * and, of course, an obvious counter question: *does* FreeBSD need to have more LOCALES?" -- Unprovided with original learning, unformed in the habits of thinking, unskilled in the arts of composition, I resolved to write a book. -- Edward Gibbon
