CLDR Version 22.1 Released

Oct 26, 2012 — Unicode CLDR 22.1 has been released, providing an update to the key building blocks for software supporting the world's languages.

Unicode CLDR 22.1 contains data for 215 languages and 227 territories—654 locales in all. Version 22.1 is an update release, with several important fixes to CLDR 22.0, such as addition of the new Turkish currency symbol, and simpler patterns for fallback timezone formatting ("Los Angeles Time" instead of "United States Time (Los Angeles)"). For details, see CLDR-22.1.

CLDR is by far the largest and most extensive standard repository of locale data, used by a wide spectrum of companies for their software internationalization and localization. It is widely deployed via LDML)—an XML format used for general interchange of locale data, such as in Microsoft's .NET.

See the Charts pages for views of the CLDR data, organized in various ways. For more information about the Unicode CLDR project see cldr.unicode.org.
