Nov 22 is the probable target date for starting work on this.
Comment 2 Lawrence Lim 2004-11-30 07:06:04 UTC 
Checked the font for CJK and Indic locales. Only bn_IN does not have
the proper fallback fonts.

Tested with openoffice.org-1.1.2-14.6.EL4.

first patch to map bn_IN to "BENGALI"

1. patch to tools maps bn_IN (instead of bn_BD) to "LANGUAGE_BENGALI" like 2.0
does

second patch to classify BENGALI as a CTL language

2. patch to svtools to classify BENGALI as a CTL language. Otherwise the
default will be the western font entries when in the bengali locale, even
though the CTL entries will be correctly set

third patch to add bengali to i18npool

3. patch to i18npool to add a bengali entry like the other hindi varients. Not
100% sure that this is required. Followed the minimal mr_IN varient to create
it.
Comment 6 Caolan McNamara 2004-12-08 15:23:52 UTC 
Those should do the trick, works for me (tm). Though its an open
question if the patches need to be duplicated to handle Bangladeshi
Bengali
i.e. add
1. { LANGUAGE_BENGALI_BANGLADESH,          "bn", "BD" }, 
to isolang.cxx
and
2. #define LANGUAGE_BENGALI_BANGLADESH         0x0845
to tools/inc/lang.hxx
3. add LANGUAGE_BENGALI_BANGLADESH to the svtools classification thing
4. (required ?) stick an appropiate xml and matching makefile.mk
changes ala patch 3 above for bn-BD.xml
Comment 8 Dan Williams 2004-12-09 02:11:04 UTC 
Patches should be in 1.1.2-16 and later
Comment 9 Akira TAGOH 2004-12-10 17:03:27 UTC 
Tested with 1.1.2-17.6.EL4. the proper font is chosen by default on
all CJK and 5 Indic locales
Comment 10 Lawrence Lim 2004-12-16 06:34:05 UTC 
Confirmed fixed in openoffice.org-i18n-1.1.2-18.6.EL4. OOo in bn_IN
can now type mix en and bn_IN characters in a document.
