--- Comment #9 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
With the latest commit 'D MMMM,' uses the same genitive case month name as 'D
MMMM ' or 'D MMMM'.


@Mike:

We could change ru-RU locale data such that the noun case month names were all
lower case, but that of course would affect all documents loaded in ru-RU
locale. Would that be expected? Or harm? If such month name would have to start
with an upper case letter in few cases then the user could assign a number
format

[NatNum12 MMMM=capitalize]MMMM

The other possibility would be to keep month names with initial capitals and
force lower case names using

[NatNum12 MMMM=lower]MMMM

as of the preceding commits.

However, none of the NatNum12 rules can be exported to Excel, so that would
display whatever it does for MMMM. (Did they meanwhile learn about non-noun
case month names somehow?)
