  • Milestone set to later

And why should they? I guess geographical names are unique and independent of any language.

comment:2 Changed 5 years ago by tensor

In russian Moscow is Москва. I believe finding its own country/city in native language is a good thing.

If it is going to be accepted, I am ready to provide a patch.
Hope for this to be included in 0.2.

comment:4 Changed 5 years ago by tensor

Please give me a "go" if you plan to accept it for 0.2.

  • Milestone changed from later to 0.2-stable

Why does it matter when it will be accepted. If you provide a working solution, the changes are high to have it committed to the trunk. Just attach your patch and you'll have good arguments.

If you localise the timezones, you should do it for every available translation. The timezones should be added to labels.inc (or maybe a new timezones.inc).

e.g. for GMT with example city London:

(GMT) London (da, en, fr, sv)

(GMT) Londen (nl)

(GMT) Londra (it)

(GMT) Londres (es, pt)

(GMT) ロンドン (jp)

(GMT) 런던 (ko)

(GMT) Lontoo (fi)

Works fine here Alec.
What you think about adding timezones to "labels.inc" instead of using new files? By this way we help to reduce the disk I/O usage and don't need to create some files initially empty (without translations).

If you want I can do it and commit to trunk.

I have in mind related ticket #1485592 which can be implemented using PHP's timezone support as stated in comment for #1484156. This would also fix problem with dst_active option (#1485864), because then we could get rid of it. Translating this will be harder.

So, now we have a lot more labels for timezones. We need a separate file.
