Bug ID: 30762
Summary: zh-Hant: new locale
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: localedata
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: taozuhong at hotmail dot com

Target Milestone: ---

zh-Hant locale data
Dear maintainers,
Chinese has two scripts/variants: Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese,
and the two variants are supported in different countries:
Simplified: zh-CN (Mainland), zh-SG (Singapore), zh-MY (Malaysia), zh-ID
(Indonesia)
Traditional: zh-TW (Taiwan), zh-HK (Hong Kong), zh-MO (Macau) 、....
Question
The locales in used can't cover all Chinese users, especial the users outside
the mainland of China, Hong Kong and Taiwan; the App developers will cost more
time to support them.
Chinese support solution
Since Windows Vista and later, RFC 4646 has been chosen as the locale tag, W3C
also support them, the language identification format is:
<Language>-<Script>-<Region>
The corresponding language codes are as follows:
Simplified: zh-Hans-CN / zh-Hans-SG / zh-Hans-MY / zh-Hans-ID / ...
Traditional: zh-Hant-CN / zh-Hant-HK / zh-Hant-TW / zh-Hant-MO / ...
if GLibc could support Chinese language encoding: zh-Hans/zh-Hant, Chinese
translation will cover all of Chinese users, and just maintain two po files.
To simplify and improve the Chinese support, please support the Chinese
language encoding zh-Hans/zh-Hant.
Please find attached the locale definition for zh-Hant to be considered for
inclusion in glibc.
Thanks!
