Review needed for Pango language sample strings

[Behdad Esfahbod <behdad behdad org>]

Hi,

Pango keeps a single string (sentence) per language that it uses internally
and also exposes for other applications to use (in a font dialog for example).
 Previously the sample text were quite limited (about 20 language supported),
and bogus.  I have not extended the list to about a hundred tables.  I used
various sample-string, pangram, and other resources freely available.  These
can be found here:

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/pango/trunk/pango/pango-language-sample-table.h?view=markup

I'm now asking translation teams to review the sentence for their language
now.  Please file a bug against pango at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ if you
think a sample string needs to be changed.  A good sample string would be:

  - Politically correct

  - Representative of normal text in the language (so, no alphabetical lists)

  - Exposes features unique to the language (European sample strings would use
diacritics used in the target language for example)

  - Not too short, not too long

  - Not copied from what Windows uses (unless it's a very widespread thing
like "The quick brown fox..."


That's it.  Thanks in advance,
