Expected content of contributions for regional locales

[ArgusMagnus]

Follow-up on #2991

Was there ever a conclusion reached on this topic? If I were to make a PR for a regional locale, should I make it a full locale or should it only include the necessary differences from the parent?

Hi @ArgusMagnus - if you look in the lib/locales directory in this repo you'll see (for example) fr.js and then fr-ch.js with differences, so I believe the answer is "necessary differences". Which language(s) are you thinking of localizing? thanks - @gvwilson

Im thinking of "fixing" de-ch. Although looking at fr-ch Im unsure what the intent was with these. They both seem to have duplicated a few entries from their parents, but the "necessary differences" are actually missing. Do you know if that was an oversight or am I looking at this the wrong way?

My guess is an oversight - a PR to correct it would be very welcome, and I can try to find native speakers of the related languages to review - thanks.
