Use a select for company’s country field At first we thought that a regular text field would do, because we were afraid that a dropdown would be worse from the point of view of user experience, but then we realized that we need the country code for VAT and phone validation, and we can not expect users to input that, of course. I had to add the first “i18n table” to the database with the name of all countries in both Catalan and Spanish and Catalan; English is the default. For now i think i do not need a view that would select the name based on the locale of the current request, because currently i do not plan on adding any other such table —the currency uses the code and the symbol, thus no need for localization. However, now i need the language tag from the locale in order to get the correct translation, and gotext does not give me any way to access the inner language. Thus the need for our Locale type. 2023-01-27 20:30:14 +00:00			`-- Verify numerus:country on pg`
