> From: Martin Duerst [mailto:duerst at it.aoyama.ac.jp] > Below please find an updated proposal for our charter update > (rechartering)... This looks good to me. I have one minor suggested addition, which you can ignore if it means a significant delay for you: > The primary language subtags allowed by the current IANA Language > Subtag Registry are limited to ISO 639-1 and ISO 639-2 in the same > way as they were limited by RFC 3066. This covers approximately 500 > possible language subtags. ISO 639-3, scheduled for approval towards > the end of 2006, will make available around 7000 more code elements > for identifying languages. Add: "These additional code elements provide coverage for all known human languages in use today." That would pre-empt questions as to (1) why we would be getting such a large increase in subtags and (2) whether this is a one-time bulk increase or if there are going to be repeated order-of-magnitude increases.
