Thanks for your feedback,

I think I read already that section, but still have some needs:

is the code lld for ladin ok, this is the official one can i use it also for
plone? Are 3 letters ok? The Ladin language is not listed in the
http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/language-identifiers.html.

We are using svn so we would like to work with svn and for this we need write
access, as said we have already a plone.org accound our user is unionshop.

Thanks
Diti

Hi Dietrich.

Sorry for the very late answer. Most people involved in the project are
unfortunately extremely busy.

I have given this user access to our Collective Subversion repository
now, where all the translation files are found.

Plone is aiming to support RFC 4646 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4646)
for its language identifier handling. Historically it has only supported
ISO 639-1 two letter languages codes, though.

According to RFC 4646 using lld as defined in ISO 639-2 for the Ladin
language is perfectly fine and thus should be possible to use with
Plone. In order for that to work the translation files should be named
plone-lld.po, atcontenttypes-lld.po, ... and have a "Language-Code:
lld\n" header inside the files. Plone's translation machinery also
expects the browser to sent a corresponding 'Accept-Language' header in
the HTTP request including the 'lld' code. As far as I know no commonly
used browser has this code in its predefined list of languages, so you
need to make sure this is added as a custom language.

As noone has yet used three letter codes with Plone, it is somewhat
likely, that you'll encounter problems with this, though. As there is no
ISO639-1 language code for the Ladin language, this is however your best
chance.

If you find problems related to the support of the three letter code in
Plone itself, please report these in our bug tracker at:
https://dev.plone.org/plone/. Your plone.org username works for the bug
tracker as well. If you file new tickets please choose
'Internationalization' as the component for the tickets regarding the
language handling. Please include specific version information and full
error_log details whenever you can, to make it easier for others to
reproduce these problems on their own systems.

I hope this will give you some pointers into the right direction.

Cheers,
Hanno
