This is true, in the sense that forcing the possessive and noun declension to 
true in klocale (NB: why is there a setDateMonthNamePossessive(bool) but no 
setNounDeclension(bool) in KLocale?) makes KOrganizer and the clock applet 
display the correct strings (apryl for the name of the month in the date 
picker, apryla in the date). However, I don't see the relation with the l10n 
directory that Lukáš suggests: I though l10n was localization, not language 
properties, and the NounDeclension of Sorbian is definitely a property of the 
language, not the place it is spoken.

I've installed a share/locale/l10n/hsb/entry.desktop file (which looks odd 
amongst all those country-specific files). It doesn't seem to affect the 
operation of the apps though - I start korganizer with

	KDE_LANG=hsb korganizer

and get korganizer in Sorbian but with the incorrect month declension in 
dates. I can't really tell if the hsb/entry.desktop is being read at all - I 
don't think so, because if I totally bork the DateFormat then nothing changes 
in the application either.

Any other suggestions?
