Please ask Mişu Moldovan for more info about the "academic" name. I remember there was an issue with someone (Sorin Paliga) who claimed its acceptance for the use of the name "academic" for keyboard layout. Perhaps a simple request sent to Sorin Paliga may solve the dispute (Sorin is a Mac user). His e-mail is paliga AT bastral DOT ro and/or sorin_paliga AT mac DOT com Maybe Mişu Moldovan can tell more on this. > This is best solved by upstream, it's not an Ubuntu issue, so > xkeyboard-config should be told after there's some consensus what the > best way to change the layout file (if at all - it may need to > include keys for the diacritics used by minority languages in Ro) Please look at this documents: http://www.secarica.ro/kbdro_help_romanian_standard_en.pdf http://www.secarica.ro/kbdro_help_romanian_programmers_en.pdf While the Romanian keyboard standard does not force which accented characters should be generated by the use of the dead keys, the actual implementation should take care of the official minorities. The above documents claims to cover all those. Another comment: - decimal separator from layout 1 generates comma - decimal separator from layout 2 generates dot For each, AltGr+[decimal separator] generates the opposite. Maybe this is a detail that counts in which default keyboard should be offered at install time, for example when some initial IP are set up, or something else. Or maybe not. But it is better to look at all aspects ...
