Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Android viewer

Thanks Sophie,

In terms of long-term l10n planning, can I use this opportunity to raise 
the issue of the need for manual locale selection in any such app? In a 
nutshell, the locales on offer vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, 
sometimes even from model to model (having just come out of an Irish 
debate about why two Samsung Androids which are only a year apart have 
Irish as a locale on the one, but not the other). Many locales are not 
on offer at all. So successful l10n for a great many locales which have 
localized desktop versions will fly or fall with the option (or lack 
thereof) of selecting your preferred locale manually.

Of course force-locale can still be the default to ensure ease of use 
for those who are lucky enough to have a localized phone but with a 
manual override for those of us less fortunate.

Michael
