I'm mostly fine with what is on there, but please see the discussion points at the bottom of that page.
- Wrt. HTML e-mail, "strongly discouraged" sounds good to me.
Gotta hate HTML e-mails.
- Wrt. language vs regional: can someone comment how much e.g. pt_BR differs from pt_PT?
A lot.
Is it like US English and UK English, or do they differ to such an extend that it would be difficult to communicate on one list?
As a rule of thumb, a pt_BR speaker would have as much (or sometimes more) trouble communicating with someone who speaks pt_PT as with someone that speaks spanish.
Sometime even more, since there are words that are common, but with completely different meanings.
I think it is a relevant "data point" for this discussion.
True.
