Since almost all 639-2 languages are written, and since the great preponderance of those are written in just one script (things like Braille and IPA aside), that means that, indeed, almost all languages will require the default-script field to be populated. Addison's proposal involves populating only those languages customarily written in two or more scripts. This is much easier to deal with logistically. -- By Elbereth and Luthien the Fair, you shall jcowan at reutershealth.com have neither the Ring nor me! --Frodo http://www.ccil.org/~cowan _______________________________________________ Ltru mailing list Ltru at lists.ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ltru
