> I dont go into discussions why catalan should or not be separated from > spain(ish), I dont want to do politics. Well, that was my point. Mixing countries and languages always leads to political discussion, while using languages only is more neutral. > The fact is that catalan and > spanish are both spoken primarily in spain, etc That was part of my confusion too, since Basque is mostly spoken in Spain, yet it is included in texlive-lang-french. (And I don't really expect an answer anymore, I understand it is just the way it is split upstream, and it isn't necessarily the best way to do it.) > We (upstream) are open for proposals, please contact us at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK. I have a few ideas, but I'm pretty busy at the moment. I'll think about it and try to come up with a consistent proposal. I'm not sure I'll succeed, but at least I'll try. Whatever the outcome, I'll surely reply to this bug in 2 months. > Please open a separate bug for that, package descriptions can be improved.
