According to RFC 1766 ( http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/htbin/rfc/rfc1766.html ) and ISO 3166 ( http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso3166.txt ) the region code of the language code should be in upper case. However, we currently use lower case. We should correct this so we meet the standard/RFC.

I supplied jbetak with the revised & expanded "regionNames.properties" file not so long ago. In that file, all iso-3066 names are in uppercase. The plan was for juraj to to check this file in but this has not happened yet. I can attach that file on this report if that is desired.

From RFC 1766: NOTE: The ISO 639/ISO 3166 convention is that language names are written in lower case, while country codes are written in upper case. This convention is recommended, but not enforced; the tags are case insensitive. ------------------------------------------------ It seems there are a two files which need fixing: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/intl/locale/src/language.properties http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpfe/global/resources/locale/en-US/regio nNames.properties

It seems that I am WRONG. the tag is "case insenstive" and are not "enforced". so... do we NEED to change it to upper case ? Should I invalid this bug ? momoi- please attache your file anyway

Frank, this is the very point jbetak and I discussed. Code internally, we don't distinguish between upper and lower cases for Lang & Region codes. The only thing that matters is that if we send out such information to the net, we do so following the lower and upper case conventions of Language and Regions codes. There is another bug which requests addition of 2 Norwegian locales. That would be the best place to attach the files I have in mind. In these files -- though it does not matter, I plan to follow uppercase and lowercase conventions -- just so that knowledgeable people don't raise this type of issue in the future.
