Thank you for your contribution. Please note that to integrate code or data contributed we need a signed Joint Copyright Assignment form (JCA) filled-out, see http://contributing.openoffice.org/programming.html#jca To be able to lookup your name in the list of approved assignments I'd appreciate if you stated your full name here in this issue. Thanks Eike
My Full name is Chris Manuh The attached data was first submitted to CLDR via http://www.it46.se/localegen/ and it's release under creative common license.
Hi Chris, Please understand that for legal reasons every contribution to OOo must be covered by the JCA, no matter under which license it may have been submitted to a different place. As with a submission through the IT46 locale data generator you granted the right to Alberto Escudero-Pascual to contribute the work to OOo (see http://www.it46.se/localegen/copyright.php ), there are two ways to solve this: either Alberto contributes the data to OOo, he did already sign the JCA, or you as the submitter sign the JCA. If you plan to contribute additional work to OOo I suggest you sign the JCA; if the locale data files will be the only contribution the easier way would be to ask Alberto to contribute them. Thanks Eike
Hi Eike, I have submitted my sign JCA forms and my name now appears on the list. Thanks Chris Manuh
Assigning LangID 0x8068 mapping to ISO codes ha-GH Proposing language listbox entry: Hausa (Ghana) Additional entry for spellchecker purposes, not related to this locale: Hausa (Nigeria) which is LangID 0x0468 mapping to ha-NG After skimming through the data I've one question: the data lists GHC (the ISO 4712 code) as CurrencySymbol, but there is a "real" symbol available: Octal Decimal Hex HTML Character Unicode 020265 8373 0x20B5 ₵ "₵" CEDI SIGN Oversight or purpose?
Created attachment 41899 [details] Updated locale with corrected currencysymbol for cedi ₵
In CWS locales23: i18npool/inc/i18npool/lang.h 1.7.22.1 i18npool/source/isolang/isolang.cxx 1.10.22.1 i18npool/source/localedata/localedata.cxx 1.47.10.1 i18npool/source/localedata/data/Attic/ha_GH.xml 1.1.2.1 i18npool/source/localedata/data/localedata_others.map 1.13.10.1 i18npool/source/localedata/data/makefile.mk 1.39.2.1 svx/source/dialog/langtab.src 1.72.296.1 Note that I changed the currency format codes from negative amounts in parentheses (that most certainly wasn't correct) to something like "-1 C" instead, same as in the ak_GH locale data.
Reassigning to QA for verification.
found fixed on cws locales23 using Windows and Linux build
found integrated on master OOG680m1 using Linux, Solaris and Windows build
