According to Russian writing practice, month names are not capitalized. So if month name doesn't stay in the beginning of the sentence, its first letter should not be capital (for example: "10 июля" or "10 июл" for abbreviation). 2. 3 letter abbreviations for weekdays are very rare in Russian. It is better to use 2 letters (Пн, Вт, Ср, Чт, Пт, Сб, Вс). ------------------------------- As a reference, both month names and weekday names appear on the Russian president's site: http://www.kremlin.ru/news -- Summary: Month names in Russian Localization should be in lowercase Product: glibc Version: 2.9 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: localedata AssignedTo: libc-locales at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: martin dot pitt at ubuntu dot com CC: glibc-bugs at sources dot redhat dot com http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11945 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
