[asterisk-dev] language for brazilian portuguese

[Tzafrir Cohen]

Hi

We have a pending patch for Brazilian syntax (yes. we asked the
submitter to use bugs.digium.com as well). One issue came up with it:
should we call those files by the name of the contry ("br") or by the
name of the language ("pt_br")?

There seem to be evidence of usage of both.

I don't have any idea why it's "br" not pt_br or even pt_BR (which would 
probably be even more correct, IMHO). It's just is. All "br" references comes 
from the following files that makes me think it's pretty fine, although I 
don't understand why the 639-1 name, not 8859-1:

/etc/asterisk/indications.conf:country=br
/etc/asterisk/sip.conf:language=br
/etc/asterisk/unicall.conf:language=br
/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf:language=br

No other file has "br" set up and since it's a channel configuration, I think 
it's a bug in both zapata.conf and unicall.conf, not in this patch, right?

Sorry if I got it wrong, maybe I just missed something, Tzafrir :-)

Cheers!
