Hi!
I filed the bug asking for the inclusion of all languages over the 90% of translated strings of the essential packages. The bug number is 119395, which is now closed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119395
For those languages that have not yet been included (bn, hi, ta, and vi, as the time of this writing), I'd like to remind you that, as stated in the bug report, you need to file for your language if you want it to be included, indicating:
Full language name: Short name: Default Locale: Default keyboard map: Console font: Timezone:
I did it by filing a bug with category "enhancement" to anaconda. I don't know if it is a good example, but you can check it here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119525
I'm writing here because I personally didn't know I had to file my language, and thus it was left out from FC 2 test 2 during installation (seems that Alan missed that too :).
I think it would be sad if after all your efforts your language was not included [in the installation process] just because it was not filed properly. Of course one shouldn't request the inclusion of a language which has not yet translated 90 % of the strings of the essential packages.
Regards,

Yes I didnt find out early enough. You might also want to check the translations are merged into the packages. With cy we have several packages like up2date where the maintainer doesn't appear to have merged translations yet.
That should help avoid missing any

Thanks Alan, indeed I missed this one too. I'll check this up. Is there any special reason why the maintainer wouldn't merge, or it is simply because they already have too much to do?

Well one of mine was closed with "***** autoconf" 8)
system-config-printer and system-config-user seem fixed in rawhide

Note that the additional requirement not stated here is that there needs to be a scalable font in the distribution with proper coverage for the locale; without that, it won't be enabled (as there's no point in letting the user choose a language that won't render. :) )

In this mail: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2004-January/msg00011.html Sarah Wang proposed 90% for:
anaconda/anaconda-online-help anaconda/anaconda-po comps firstboot rhgb redhat-config-packages redhat-artwork redhat-menus
But anaconda-po is the part that accounts for most of the strings iirc.
That's in order to have your language supported (included) during the installation process.
You can see the status of your language in http://carolina.mff.cuni.cz/~trmac/fedora-i18n.html Look the last row at the bottom (labeled "Essential") for your language's column.

It might be good to keep our eyes on Fedora Core 1 instead of RedHat, already Fedora is so much ahead in these things, if you have troubles to maintain, update, with yum and downloading iso's from mirrors in your neighorbood, I might give you a hand as being more a systems programmer than a linguist.
