 * Hi, can anyone tell me why in dashboard-settings-general the site language refuses
   to accept english(UK). Its on the dropdown with a few other languages. The others
   work. But eng(uk) does not, it keeps going back to Eng(usa).
    I installed eng(
   usa). Got all the .mo and .po files for other languages and uploaded them to 
   content/langs. So whats so special about the English?
 * Any tips please…
