Description Christian Rose 2005-03-26 11:44:53 UTC
From Locations.xml.in:

  <country>
    <_name>México</_name>

Isn't the country called "Mexico" (without the accent) in English?
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/mx.html seems to suggest this.

    <location>
      <!-- Translators: This is in Mexico. -->
      <_name>México</_name>
      <code>MMMX</code>
      <coordinates>19-26N 099-06W</coordinates>
    </location>

Isn't this city usually called "Mexico City" in English?

Perhaps corrections should be made regarding this in Locations.xml.in. Note that
 such changes would currently break string freeze.

Woah. When translating these strings, I had no idea that I was translating
Mexico and Mexico City (my vim isn't displaying higher-bit characters very
well). If the city name is intended to be the capitol of Mexico, then it should
be Mexico City *nod*
