[BZ #531]

2006-01-07  Eddy Petrisor  <eddy.petrisor@gmail.com>
	* locales/ro_RO: The sorting order of the letters a circumflex and
	a with breve was corrected according to the Romanian alphabet.
	Capital A with breve is in no longer used within day names.
	Romanian post-92 writing rules are used within day and abday fields.
	Fixed the international currency symbol because after the
	denomination (starting with the 1st of July 2005), the symbol is
	RON (1 RON = 10000 ROL).
	Grouping sign for thousands, which is ".", is used for Romanian.
	Numbers are grouped in sets of 3 digits.
	The short date format is %d.%m.%Y for Romanian in Romania.
	The year is placed before the time in date_fmt.
	%Z was replaced with %z in date formats because %Z is not
	used nor widely known in Romania, and Romania uses daylight saving
	and the difference is more obvious this way.
	abday for Saturday was changed because i> looks bad and is
	incorrect according to post-92 writing rules.
	In Romanian months' names are not capitalized. The same goes for
	the days' names.
	A4 is the prefered paper type and metric system is used;
	FIXMEs were removed.
	country_name, country_car, lang_name and lang_ab were added.
	name_mr, name_mrs, name_miss were added; name_ms omitted as
	there is no proper form it in Romanian.
	An explanation related to the cedilla/comma issue and
	the reson why the transliteration is a good idea was added.
	The default encoding was changed to UTF-8 because this is the
	only encoding that supports all Romanian specific symbols and
	dicritics.
	The name format was corrected while salutation abbreviation was
	omitted.
	postal_fmt was corrected according to the Romanian style of
	writing this information.

	* SUPPORTED (SUPPORTED-LOCALES): Add el_CY.ISO-8859-7 and el_CY.UTF-8.

+% Transliteration is _currently_ a good idea as most fonts/applications do not
+% have the correct diacritics for "t comma bellow" (U021A, U021B) and 
+% "s comma bellow" (U0218, U0219). Thus we currently use and compromise with
+% "t cedilla" (U0162, U0163) - which, actually, does not belong to any 
+% language - and "s cedilla" (U015E, U015F) - which is _not_ correct for
+% Romanian, but is correct for Turkish.
+%
+% This issue should be fixed in the future, when enough font and application
+% support will be provided in current operating systems.

+% Because in 1992 the Romanian Academy stated that within words the
