Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Languages by language family
I got an e-mail reply from Srl295 last monday who asked for permission to forward the note on to the CLDR technical committee, which I granted.
A rough sketch for the translatewiki.net technical part as I currently see it:
- We could use locales provided in the Local Description Markup Language LDML, an XML format designed by CLDR, to extract a set of key => value pairs per locale, which obviously can be imported into its own namespace in translatewiki.net, possibly including limited amounts of message documentation.
- The inverse process could be used to generate files with suggestions of additions and updates to be provided to CLDR.
- Other types of export formats are possible of course as well.
- While this scheme could transport all possible locale items, we do not have to support them all.
- I can do the necessary coding.
