Introduction to cm-locale-es_ES-12.5.1.8000-1.cop.sha512

The ​​cm-locale-es_ES-12.5.1.8000-1.cop.sha512​​ is a Cisco Options Package (COP) designed to enable native Spanish (Spain) language localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) environments. This digitally signed package implements ISO 8601 date/time formatting, Euro currency symbols (€), and UTF-8 encoding for Spanish-specific characters (ñ, ç, á, etc.) in compliance with EU Directive 2024/118 on multilingual enterprise communication systems.
