<p dir="ltr">Hello Carlos,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thank you very much for such an advancement. This feature will allow any software to fallback on a fully internationalized locale.</p>

now shipping with a C.UTF-8 locale for use as a default UTF-8<br>
locale. The locale can be referenced as "C.UTF-8" or "C.utf8".<br>
Any feedback on the locale is greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
The locale is added to the pre-processed memory mapped locale<br>
archive (/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive) which means there is<br>
little to no performance impact for having this locale. However,<br>
in order to make sure that the locale is robustly available in<br>
all scenarios, including one in which a locale archive update<br>
fails, the locale is added as /usr/lib/locale/C.utf8. Yes, this<br>
means that the locale consumes 2x1.8MB on disk for this initial<br>
implementation.<br>
<br>
I consider this a real step forward to providing all the upper<br>
stacks with a default UTF-8 locale that we can guarantee will<br>
always be available.<br>
<br>
Comments welcome.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Carlos.<br>
