The pt one got almost no translation/updates, so we +</I>>><i> agreed to merge both and have Portugueses/Brazilians discuss among +</I>>><i> themselves to find the best common localization; unless both teams +</I>>><i> grow enough to manage two distinct sections (valid for www, blog and +</I>>><i> maybe other things). +</I>><i> I im the Pt manager and translater, if you look into translation wiki +</I>><i> page you will see a PT team. +</I> +And if you read again what Romain said, you'll see that managing the +two distinct sections require to that the teams are big enough. Would +you guarantee that you can maintain every Mageia website alone? If +that's the case, then this topic can be DISCUSSED, but never FORCED. +You have no rights to change everything because you feel like it would +be better, as said previously. + +><i> +</I>>><i> Making a distinction between pt and pt-br is probably the same as +</I>>><i> between fr and fr-ch or fr-ca or es, es-ca, es-ar, etc. So for now, we +</I>>><i> focus on a single localization per main language, unless we have +</I>>><i> enough people to manage branches of these (zh-tw and zh-cn being a +</I>>><i> slightly distinct case). +</I>><i> No, its not the same, there are major differences, there was an +</I>><i> orthograpgic agreement but that was never put in pratice since +</I>><i> continue exist words written differently, also exist words that exist +</I>><i> for brasilians and that dont exist of portugueses. +</I>><i> If you could have a look into mandriva cooker you would have seen that +</I>><i> exists aspell-pt and aspell-pt_BR. +</I>><i> I did mailed about it to mageia ML but i was told that was a thing to +</I>><i> be changed after freeze, still dont get why since this its not like an +</I>><i> update... +</I> +When I hear "This is a thing to be changed after freeze", I understand +"We're awfully busy now, please refrain from wrecking havoc on the SVN +until we have the time to consider your proposition". +So that's not an update, but that's a potential post-release +improvement. Again, this is absolutely not mandatory. Even if there +are big differences between the two languages, I suppose Brazilians +and Portuguese do understand each other. + +><i> +</I>>><i> In the meantime (moving pt-br branch into pt) we kept the original +</I>>><i> pt-br texts, so that explains this: +</I>>><i> +</I>>>><i> also here the correct language code for portuguese brasilian would be pt_BR +</I>>><i> +</I>>><i> HTML lang attribute follows <A HREF="http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47">http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47</A> which +</I>>><i> specifies pt-BR but tolerates pt-br.
