since we have some new volunteers for the Ukrainian language on l10n@ I
am wondering why our homepage for Ukrainian links to "ua" [1] and not to
uk (or uk-UA)? In our source the translation file for Ukrainian resides
in "uk" [2]
OpenOffice is using standards and for language codes it's ISO 639-1 [1].
And please take into account that it's about codes that represent
*languages* and not countries. This don't need to be the same (e.g.,
think of "uk" for United Kingdom and "en-GB" for British English). ;-)
Wikipedia shows the same difference: country = "ua" [2] and language =
"uk" [3].
I think that means we should change the code for the website.
