Re: [Ltru] sgn-tags with regions (was: Re: draft updated)



The subtag 'ase' will replace "sgn-US" as the (sub)tag meaning "American Sign Language". You can then use region subtags with it as needed. E.g. ase-US or sgn-ase-US (based on the current draft). Among other things, it means that we don't need to do anything except deprecate the grandfathered tag "sgn-US" (etc.)
