See > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Languages#head-2ae52dbef2515e18d66fba220112c712c9d2eb14 I agree about not associating a flag with a particular language. Note, though, that localization is all about tweaking Fedora for a particular region/country, which *is* associated with a flag. So, while putting the flag of Brazil on the brazilian portuguese language is wrong, putting it on the website of the "Fedora Brazil" team is not only fair, but very accurate. Also, associating a bunch of (preferably non-existing) flags with the term "localization" or "translations" shouldn't be bad either. The Artwork project could indeed create an icon with non-existing-flags, like the Tango one: http://tango.freedesktop.org/static/cvs/tango-icon-theme/32x32/apps/preferences-desktop-locale.png -d -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos@xxxxxxxxxx, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."
