Re: GNU glibc locales and CLDR Questions ...



Hello,
I'm not contributing to the discussion, I just noticed that your 
keyboard mapping appears to be broken:

The characters in your mail are
	"µ" (U+00B5 MICRO SIGN) rather than
	"μ" (U+03BC GREEK SMALL LETTER MU)
	(which is UTF-8 CEBC as quoted in your google URL)
and - much worse because of the significantly different glyphs -
	"ß" (U+00DF LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S) rather than
	"β" (U+03B2 GREEK SMALL LETTER BETA).

Kind regards,
Thomas
