https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=27614 --- Comment #2 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> --- Personal response: Note that xsl:number (in XSLT) and format-integer() (in both XSLT and XQuery) support other numbering systems, but format-number() (and hence xsl:decimal-format) does not. Neither has support for radices other than 10. We introduced format-integer() to provide more flexibility than format-number() in the case where the numbers being formatted are integers, and at the same time to be context independent (there is no separate format declaration, as there is with format-number()). However, format-integer() and xsl:number still provide rather less that CLDR. (And I've also found cases where CLDR seems to provide less than is needed. For example there seems to be a distinction in German between the grammatical contexts of "Chapter 101" (hunderteins) and "101 dalmations" (hundertundein) which I don't see in CLDR). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
