[Bug localedata/14085] New: English language locale for the Netherlands


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14085

             Bug #: 14085
           Summary: English language locale for the Netherlands
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: pander@users.sourceforge.net
                CC: libc-locales@sources.redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Internationally oriented users who are physically located in the Netherlands
use software mainly in the English language. Therefore they have their systems
usually configured to US English International. However, due to the geographic
location, it can be desirable for certain data to be represented according to
the local Dutch notation while the rest remains in English.

Therefore this locale called en_NL has been created. It is based on en_US and
has some parts from nl_NL. Please see comments starting with "%% use" how each
section has been composed. Note that this specific configuration is difficult
to obtain by using locale nl_NL and setting LANGUAGES to en.

The latest version is available at:
  https://github.com/PanderMusubi/locale-en-nl

Please include this locale in next release.
