JSON packaging proposal for CLDR

[Mckenna, Mike]

This will change the way we process CLDR since today we are just pulling the full file in for each locale before process in house.  But smaller is better.  This proposal will require that we put the sparse inheritance logic into our process on this side.  One advantage to your proposal is that it will make it much easier for us to determine the diffs between locales and between releases.

Yes, you are correct.  The thought was to keep the size of each individual package to a minimum, thus each package just builds on top of its requisites.

About locale coverage, (just to make sure I understood correctly) currently I download one single file full.zip in order to download all available coverage for all functionalities. After this change, I'll need to download tier-1, tier-2, modern and all of a given functionality in order to download all available coverage of such functionality.

Is that correct?

PS: Initially, I was expecting an incremental coverage: tier-1 ⊆ tier-2 ⊆ modern ⊆ all. If the sets are not incremental, should all be renamed leftover? :)

Hi John,

Please, could you include the size of each package? I'm interested to know how the functionality break down will balance the bytes weight.

Thanks

Hi everyone,

   I have been working on a design proposal for packaging of CLDR's JSON data, for the 27 release and following.  Please review and comment:

https://sites.google.com/site/cldr/development/development-process/design-proposals/json-packaging at your convenience.  You should be able to put your comments directly into the document.

I would like to bring this proposal for approval to the CLDR TC at NEXT week's meeting, on 2015-01-21.
