This is unrelated to the ABNF discussion of late. However, I just note that (whichever form is preferred when extlangs are involved) that (IIUC): * for 'ar' we are about to add 30 extlangs, *none* of which are "extlangish" in the current LSR. * for 'zh' we are about to add 13 extlangs, *only four* of which are "extlangish" in the current LSR (cmn, gan, wuu, yue). * for 'sgn' we are about to add 132 extlangs, *none* of which are "extlangish" in the current LSR. Was there "rough consensus" to add extlangs for any other primary languages tags (none of which would be "extlangish" in the current LSR)? B.t.w., should not the preferred value for the grandfathered sign language tags maintain the region, like: g.f. tag cur. p.v. p.v. keeping region sgn-BE-FR sfb sbf-BE (or sgn-sbf-BE) sgn-BE-NL vgt vgt-BE (or sgn-vgt-BE) sgn-CH-DE sgg sgg-CH (or sgn-sgg-CH) etc. for the other grandfathered sgn-NN tags. (Not that I think it matters very much, but still.) /kent k _______________________________________________ Ltru mailing list Ltru at ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ltru
