Doesn't exist only Portugual and Brazil using the portuguese language, so
we at POLI are trying to using a portuguese style that can be read for all
countries that use portuguese language. Like I'm a Brazilian I would like
to translate the docs in pt_BR like Conectiva does but I can't because
these countries, I hope you understand this.

The POLI Project are opening a mailing list for this soon, I will notice
