Thanks for the response Eike.
If i don't have to file another issue, is it safe to
assume that the language will be listed in the global
setting's language dropdown once the locale become
available?

Thanks

To be listed as a default language, locale data must
be available.
I just searched for and grabbed issue
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=60109
that was rotting away at the old default owner's
account.

A text can still be assigned the Akan language for
spell-checking
purposes using the characters' font attribution. If
done in the default
template file it is then active for every new
document.

No new issue necessary.
