@leslieamadi: Thank you for your locale data contribution! Apparently we don't have your license statement on file, could you please send us a blanket statement that you contribute all your past and future patches under the MPLv2 and LGPLv3+ licenses? Best on the dev mailing list libreoffice@lists.freedesktop.org so we can link to it from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers Something like this does nicely: All of my past & future contributions to LibreOffice may be licensed under the MPLv2/LGPLv3+ dual license. Best use Subject: <your full name> license statement Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for cooperating :-)
Or actually, seeing the attached file was generated using the locale data generator at it46.se (which unfortunately doesn't exist anymore) they had a "grant contribution to other projects" (e.g. OOo and CLDR) coverage for these cases. Also, the data uses English as language so could rather be derived from en-GB in large portions instead of duplicating data (I could do that). However, do we really want to add an English en-NG locale? I'd rather hope for proper Hausa or Yoruba data, maybe we should derive Hausa (in Latin script) ha-Latn-NG from the already existing ha-Latn-GH locale data instead? (which I could do as well); with the benefit that MS-Office also seems to support a ha-Latn-NG locale with LCID 0x0468. The overall purpose here seems to be to get *some* Nigerian locale and the NGN currency available.
So I'm deriving ha_Latn_NG.xml from ha_Latn_GH.xml, changing currency and calendar (i.e. Afi/Afirilu instead of Afr/Afrilu), date (DMY date order instead of MDY) and time formats according to what is given at the CLDR and can be seen with https://ssl.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp?d_=en&_=ha_NG
