I answered in the Forge ticket, but I think it's worth repeating here, 
since it touches on a decision we took a while ago about using locales:

<quote>
I agree with all this, but I would prefer that we stick to fully 
qualified locales (e.g. fr_FR, fr_CA, etc.) rather than 2-letter ISO 
codes. We already had this discussion quite early on in the reST 
migration project and we chose locales so that we wouldn't have the same 
problems we faced in the TYPO3 Core, having to use the dummy code "qc" 
for fr_CA because we didn't support proper locales.

Locales are already used for Git repositories containing translations 
(e.g. git://git.typo3.org/Documentation/TYPO3/Guide/Security.nl_NL.git) 
and the Flow application is also designed to use locales.
