But this pattern is not true to the standard, 
it can also be "xx", "xx-YYY", "xx-yyyyy-zzz", 
see the RFC. Each have different and meaningful 
meanings.

I know, that's why I started this discussion 
in the first place :)

I think we should follow the standard, 
rather than a limited pattern.

If we invent our own pattern, it will not be possible 
to interchange our language code with tools which 
adhere to standards.

BTW we should only worry about this _once_ for each 
language we translate our documentation to. So 
far we have bits in English and Spanish only, so 
it's not very complicated. Moreover IMO we should 
first concentrate on English only.

Brgds,
Viktor
