I was Looking into the CLDR supplemental week data and noticed, that for (eg.) Germany the weekOfPreference list Looks like:</p>

This might be historically true, but using the ISO week number in german business communication is (to my perception) almost the only common used method - yet weekOfYear is not even listed as the least prio.</p>

So I was wondering based on which data this sequence is produced, and when is it last revised? I havent found a methodology/justification for this entry.</p>

There is also the Problem, that it is highly context dependend. For example in direct discussions about Upcoming month, using the week of month might be quite common … also using weekofDate and weekOfInterval are often used when someone asks for clarification,
but not necessarily initially.</p>
