"Who is its public" is a pretty easy question, actually: Anyone who speaks any of these four languages is its public. Unless someone convincingly proves the opposite, readers don't care whether it's "sr", "hr", sh", "bs", or "hbs" (or "cnr" ;).
I do think that given the current state of the software, a more practical solution would be to have one project in sr that would be more focused on Cyrillic, and another in hr, sh, or hbs, that would be more focused on Latin, but this still means that an hbs or sh is eligible.
I'm fine with both codes. "hbs" is cleaner according to the standards, but requires a bit of work, although it's really tiny, and it can be an opportunity to make the converter more generic. "sh" doesn't require any additional work, but in the current configuration, it doesn't have the converter enabled.

Hoi, The problem will be that we open a can of worms when we go this route. Arguably there is no such language as Croatian and Serbian became separate languages.. The question would be who is its public. Thanks, Gerard

A user has asked about starting a new project (namely Wikivoyage) in the Serbo-Croatian language. I see no problems with the eligibility of such a project, does anyone? (One would have to wonder about the ISO code, as it's ISO 639-3 hbs; but we already have Wikipedia and Wiktionary under "sh" as a deprecated code in 639-1, but that's a different issue). _______________________________________________ Langcom mailing list -- langcom@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe send an email to langcom-leave@lists.wikimedia.org
