I do not think we need to coordinate all our data with CLDR, I actually think we have a very active community that is capable of maintaining our inforation ourselves. So no need to open bug requests with CLDR - but of cause we should try to align with them, and they with us. I believe there is a difference in month names between Germany and Austria.
