I will probably fix my own location, as usual.

But, on a related matter, what charset will OS4 (or MorphOS for that matter) use and support?

From old, AmigaOS has always used iso-8859-1, but some time ago there was this half-assed attempt on going iso-8859-15, yet it was really a pthetic attempt, I have yet not seen *any* iso-8859-15 fonts for amiga, they were all iso-8869-1 with the currency replaced with a euro, ignoring the fact that there are 7 other chars to be replaced too.

What cyrillic charsets is used, koi8-r or iso-8859-5?

Will there be unicode at all? UTF8 seems to have become the most used charset these days, especially on the web.

@Kolla

Read the features list at http://os.amiga.com - it touches on the issues of fonts and charsets and suggests a variety of charsets will be supported.

It would have been cool to participate, but i am stuck in the 3.1 worlds without intention of upgrading my A1200.

Hopefully, some other Swede(s) might be able to help out.

I would like to, actually, I think I would be able to do a
decent translation. Unfortunately 1) I'm currently doing my
master theisis in astrophysics and 2) My Amiga isn't
connected to the net (see my thread "Amiga/Linux help
wanted")... :-/
 
To be honest, I never use the swedish translations anyway.
I always use AOS3.9 (as well as Windows and Linux) in
native english mode only. I'm sure the translations are very
good - I'm just so used doing everything in english that it
would be very unnerving to see some swedish translation
of "Please insert disk ### in df0:" :-)
 
The only crucial "local" thing for me is a swedish keyboard
layout.
