Am I to assume you finally found a way to streamline the addition of new locales? Friendly, Eduardo. PS: I have nothing against the insertion of Kasubian, but check some facts[2], I really don't understand your policy, unless it's changed for the good and we are next ... Population 3,000 in Poland. Language use The Slovincian dialect is extinct. Few children speakers of Kashubian Proper.
