Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: EOF of cz locale 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Jan Hnatek 1.3 Date of This Document: 15 August, 2008 4. Technical Description OVERVIEW By mistake and for some unknown reason, we have been shipping a locale "cz" (at the OS layer only) in addition to the rightful Czech locales such as "cs_CZ" and so on for several Solaris releases. Clearly, this is an error going against the full-blown and conservative locale naming convention based on the [1] that is widely used in the industry and also by us. People shouldn't use the "cz" locale but use the rightful "cs_CZ" and so on locales. (This error is also recorded in the CR 6309693.) With this project, we would like to remove the locale through the EOF process and correct the error. DETAILS ON THE EOF Once approved by ARC and Solaris P-Team, we will do the EOF announcement at an S10 UR Release Notes and do the EOF execution at Navada/OpenSolaris. That the "cz" locale name is an error and people should use the rightful "cs_CZ" and so on locales will be recorded as the EOF statement. PROPOSED INTERFACES & RELEASE BINDING Interface Classification Note --------- -------------- ---- /usr/lib/locale/cz Obsolete Committed OS locale directory and "cz" as an OS locale name The project team proposes Micro/Patch release binding for EOF announcement and Minor for EOF execution.
