Language codes to use in extensions, Firefox vs Seamonkey

[Matthew Wilson-4]

I recently added Greek and German translations to an extension using
language codes "el" and "de". This works fine in Firefox but apparently
fails in SeaMonkey.

What are the recommended language codes to use in this scenario?

'Both' seems to be a technically reasonable answer to me.

As SeaMonkey is going to move over to toolkit (and short locale names,
for that matter) some day, I would suggest using toolkit's conventions
for directory structure and naming etc.

I put here a reply to the same question I received from an extension
developper:

"SeaMonkey doesn't recognize simplified language codes so you
will have to use el-GR and de-DE (or de-AT pick one)."
