I think striking the two instances of "other" deals with the problem: all subtags are lowercase, except for non-initial two-letter tags, which are uppercase, and non-initial four-letter tags, which are titlecase. (Come to think of it, that's probably a clearer wording; I hereby propose it.) Note that the "non-initial two-letter subtags need not be region subtags: we write sgn-BE-FR, for example. -- That you can cover for the plentiful John Cowan and often gaping errors, misconstruals, http://www.ccil.org/~cowan and disinformation in your posts cowan at ccil.org through sheer volume --that is another misconception. --Mike to Peter _______________________________________________ Ltru mailing list Ltru at ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ltru
