What is the status of Features/YumLangpackPlugin?

Hi,
	I have the yum-langpacks plugin installed and it works. :-)

My problem in a sense is that it is limited in scope. :-(

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/YumLangpackPlugin was the feature page 
for when the feature was initially deployed. The purpose of this is post is to 
raise awareness for this feature and continue to have it implemented to have a 
better experience for our users (from where developers are a subset).

1) "This feature will also allow firefox and thunderbird to earn langpacks as 
they deserve."

In F15 asking

yum list *langpack*

shows that only

koffice
libreoffice
tesseract

support langpacks and tesseract has three letters acronyms for languages:

tesseract-langpack-bul
tesseract-langpack-cat
tesseract-langpack-ces
tesseract-langpack-chi_sim
tesseract-langpack-chi_tra
tesseract-langpack-dan
tesseract-langpack-dan-frak
tesseract-langpack-deu
tesseract-langpack-deu-frak
tesseract-langpack-ell
...

Searching to virtual provides we get:

repoquery --whatprovides \*langpack\*

this adds

moodle-<lang>

to the bundle.


2) In the Optional/longer term ideas:
"3. recommendation for Packaging Guideline for standard naming of langpacks 
(eg <basename>-langpack-<lang>)"

This seems an easy step, both to standardize the form of <lang> as well as to 
suggest a virtual provides to packages that already provide this, I am 
thinking in this case of packages like kde-i18n* or kde-i10n*.

What do others think?
