I don't think we should add en_GB and en_US to the list of supported
languages or split the translations. We should use the convention just when
making decisions on the correctness of words. Also I don't think there are
so many differences that it would justify the split.
Thanks,

@Thomas: I’ve tried to add a new language by following
http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/L10N/AddALanguage but I couldn’t
find the page referenced by "Edit the main page of the application.”. Do
you think you could add en_GB to the list? Also, I think we should mention
somewhere that the en_US version is maintained in Git by the XWiki Core dev
team and explain how people could contribute to the en_US version. WDYT?
Thanks

Hi devs,
By default the xwiki core committers maintain an “en” version of all
translations
and the other languages are left to the community to maintain
on
l10n.xwiki.org
This mail is about deciding if our “en” version is “en_US” or “en_GB”.
I propose that we standardize on “en_US”. for example
ApplicationResources.properties would correspond to en_US.
I also propose that we add en_GB on l10n so that the community could
maintain a UK
version if they want (it would fall back to en_US when there
are no translations, which is a good thing).
WDYT?
Thanks
