I copied the language list exactly from Transifex, including language teams which have made any progress in translations. I don't suggest to make renaming. Because the names of the language teams will be the folder names in repo after uploading translations to Git repo. If we make renaming here, there will be a new folder added, other than overwriting the existing one. There will be two folders for these renaming languages, for example, folder "bg" and folder "bg-BG". Best regards Ying Chun Guo (Daisy) Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.com> wrote on 08/28/2015 01:48:25 AM:

Could we also revise languages and language codes?
I think we should prefer Country-independent languages over country ones.
So, we should prefer German ("de") over German in Germany ("de_DE") and German in Austria ("de_AT").
In case where we have country specific ones - like pl_PL -, can we rename them to country independent ones - like pl?
When asking for new languages, we should then get the independent one in first and only after consolidation with the existing team create a specific one.
What do you think?
I can't directly speak to the conversation that led to this list, but StevenK and Daisy came up with the following list, which seems to go by what you suggest:
ar as bg-BG
Rename to bg?
bn-IN
Rename to bn?
brx ca cs de el en-AU en-GB es es-MX fi-FI
Rename to fi?
fil fr gu he hi hu id it ja ka-GE
Rename to ka?
kn ko-KR
Can we rename to ko, please?
kok ks mai mni mr ne nl-NL
Rename to nl?
pa-IN
Rename to pa?
pl-PL
Can we rename the above to pl, please?
pt pt-BR ru sl-SI
Rename to sl?
sr ta te-IN
Rename to te?
tr-TR
Rename to tr?
ur vi-VN
Rename to vi?
zh-CN zh-TW
Copied from this pastebin that StevenK shared last night, in case it expires: http://paste.openstack.org/show/429137/
Background: We get *lots* of request on transifex for new languages, for
example today for pl. There's right now no reason to have both pl and pl-PL. I'd like us to standardize here...
