Microsoft uses MF(yrom) and MFS instead of MKD in Windows 8

[George S.]

we should all write letters to ms that we are not happy with what they have done.I'm reminded that there wasaclaim years ago that the world's best JAVA POROGRAMMER was a
macedonian living in skopje.We should all send letter to ms dissaproving of what they ms has doneon our name.

It would be good to fix.
But Macedonia still wants to be called FYROM. It has not denounced this acronym nor has it rejected the Interim Agreement. It can only be assumed FYROM has the highest level of acceptance in Macedonia.

Hey guys,

I haven't posted in years, but i am bringing this issue forward in hope that together we can resolve it.

Today, i noticed that the Macedonian language, as the title says, has an ugly shortcode MF and MFS instead of MKD, in Windows 8, which was not the case for the previous versions (except the ugly acronym).

Here is a screenshot of it:



I posted the issue on a Macedonian IT Forum, so we can all together start requesting immediate change. Some of the forum members already contacted them by using their support chat, here is the link:

I spoke with them and here is my conversation:



I urge all Macedonians that care to contact them and request immediate change, not only to the language shortcode, but for the acronym as well.
