And ISO 639 seems to specify: uk Ukrainian BTW, I have no clue why there are different ABOUT-NLS in gnome-core and gimp or which one is newer or more accurate. Salut, Sven PS: If you are looking for a good laugh, point your browser to the en_SV translation for gnome-lookit. This is definitely a language that is not defined in any ISO standard: http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsblame.cgi?file=gnome-lokkit/po/en_SV.po&rev=1.1 &root=/cvs/gnome
