Comment 4 for bug 1350275

Currently the list includes many languages that, as far as I can tell, do not actually have available translations. For example, it includes 17 varieties of English, when in reality Ubuntu Touch ships with only the three that Launchpad offers for translation -- en_AU, en_CA, and en_GB. <https://launchpad.net/~/+editlanguages> (Plus en@shaw, which I've reported bug 1455917 for.)

I suspect this is because Ubuntu is showing a list of locales rather than actual languages, and many locales share languages. Is that correct? Andreea Pirvu and I are working on the assumption that it is, and that we can separate out the choice of locale into its own step. If you have allowed location detection, possibly the step will be automatic, or at least the default can be based on your location. Either way, that would shorten the list of "languages" from 100 entries to about 50.
