I believe this should be ISO-8859-15 - as most (all?) ISO-8859-1's
should be to include the Euro etc.

Not to my knowledge.  It's been orphaned for quite a while, with
occasional updates/corrections to existing pages by Jaromir Dolecek
(IIRC).

I had asked Paulo the same question when I originally imported the
branch.  His answer led me to include "-BR" -- since it was given in a
private email, I'll not copy'n paste it here, but the differences seemed
at least as strong as the differences between de-DE and de-CH.

I don't know enough about this to speak with any authority, but I seem
to recall that there a LOT of "dialects", where speakers of one can
hardly understand somebody speaking in another.  A quick google
indicates that there are at least seven major language groups.  I'd
assume that this should be enough to leave it as is, but if Rui-Xiang
(or anybody else with more insights) knows better, please let us
know.
