Je signale, par exemple, aux habitants de Kanaky-Nelle-Calédonie (private joke pour henryk ;-) ), qu'un débat très pointu sur les langues polynésiennes se déroule actuellement sur la liste OSM anglophone. Tahiti, les Marquises et Touamotou sont aussi concernées, car on y parle de la manière d'indexer leurs langues dans OSM.
Y-a-t'il quelqu'un pour compléter la page du wiki : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/FR:Noms_multilingues ? J'apprends donc qu'il y a une Académie tahitienne, créée en 1972, par la République française et soutenue par le gouvernement autonome de la Polynésie française. Nous en, Bretagne, nous n'avons qu'un Office public de la Langue bretonne, financé principalement par la Région et les départements.

Date : 12 septembre 2012 19:26:31 HAEC À : Tom Hughes <t...@compton.nu> Cc : t...@openstreetmap.org Whao, interesting answers from everyone. I learned many things. I've never thought that IETF are interested by languages in the world, and that IANA have a database of languages. It removes my doubts on translation projects for other softwares (OpenOffice / LibreOffice, spellcheker ...).

Because, the others tags have three letters. And tah is more easy to remember than ty. But I understand that with so many letters, not everyone can be satisfied.

There usually are where multiple orthographies exist for > a language. To my knowledge, in French Polynesia, there is nothing official about the distinction between these two systems of writing, only the writing of the Bible. For almost 20 years, there is an institution for the Tahitian language (Fare Vāna'a, Académie tahitienne http://www.farevanaa.pf), it uses the Catholic writing. But I do not know about his influence in education in Protestant schools. I'll look for informations from these two institutions.
