> The current locale setup has its flaws:
> * It forces you assume that the default locale is English which leads to problems that {{site_en.xml}} is often not found
> * Full locale cannot be used to create a localized site: only language is used, no country nor region: region is critical for example for Simplified chinese vs Traditional, see MSITE-904
> This overhaul will implement two changes:
> # The default locale will not be English anymore, but rather {{ROOT}} as a language-agnostic one.
> # One can provide a full locale and Doxia Sitetools will incrementally reduce the locale from variant down to root to find the most specific site descriptor, e.g., {{'de_DE_BY', 'de_DE', 'de', ''}}. Assuming that the user has requested {{'de_DE_BY'}} as in German in Germany, specifically in Bavaria.
> Both approaches apply the logic from [{{ResouceBundle#getBundle()}}|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/ResourceBundle.html#getBundle-java.lang.String-java.util.Locale-java.lang.ClassLoader-].
