Of course there is an(other) update (I promise, the last which I am doing from my own will and based on my sole reasoning) :-/ I have added the isbn code for RO and the postal code (I am not 100% sure that is the correct one, but I don't recall seeing another one). All the locales were tested, including ro_RO.ISO-8859-16 (explanation follows). I order not to have a war going on on the basis of the encoding used by ro_RO I have created ro_RO.ISO-8859-16 as another valid locale for ro_RO (although UTF-8 is the only encoding that displays all Roamnian specific characters), but this modification is in an unpublished patch. Taking into account that UTF-8 will become the 'de facto' standard encoding in the world (until another encoding that fixes the han unification problem appears) I made two patches (one with ro_RO.ISO-8859-16 locale and one without) to test them. They both contain the isbn code and the postal code. Notes: - I will promote the one without ISO-8859-16 as the encoding *still* can't encode all Romanian specific codes. Adding yet another broken ro_RO* locale would add suplemental mess to the whole Romanian localisation issues. - The patch with the 8859-16 locale was made as a test to see if the locale would work. Because so few applications are iso-8859-16 aware I feel that introducing this locale will cause more delays towards crossing to UTF-8 and also lots and lots of unnecessary issues. Because of this I am sending only the patch without the ro_RO.ISO-8859-16 locale.
