2037069 - Ship Intl.LocaleInfo

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript: Internationalization API, task, P2)

Description

[Dan Minor [:dminor]]

The Intl.LocaleInfo proposal is already at Stage 4, so we should look into shipping it as soon as possible. I'm planning Firefox 153, which will be Nightly starting May 18th.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: We're shipping the Intl.LocaleInfo proposal, which has already been shipped by V8 and JSC.
[Affects Firefox for Android]: Yes
[Suggested wording]: The Intl.LocaleInfo proposal adds the ability to query Locale information, such as week data (first day in a week, weekend start day, weekend end day), text direction and hour cycle used in the Locale.

Note added to our 153 nightly release notes in the Web Platform section with this wording:

The Intl.LocaleInfo proposal adds the ability to query Locale information, such as week data (first day in a week, weekend start day, weekend end day), text direction and hour cycle used in the Locale.

I am keeping the relnote-firefox? flag set until we include this note in our final 153 release notes, thanks.
