This is as requested by the chairs. However, it is incomplete.

I have looked at this and at the diff, and have run the idnits tool.

However, we now have an informative reference in a normative sentence:

       E.  UN numeric codes and ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes for countries
           or areas listed as eligible for registration in Section 4 of
           [RFC4645] but not presently registered MAY be entered into
           the IANA registry via the process described in Section 3.5.
           Once registered, these codes MAY be used to form language
           tags.

My understanding from previous discussions (both Randy and I had
the same idea) was that for this instance of referencing [RFC4645],
we would replace it inline with the only instance left, resulting
in something like:

       E.  The UN numeric code or ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code (once assigned)
           for the Channel Islands MAY be entered into the IANA registry
           via the process described in Section 3.5 (for historic
           details, see [RFC4645]).

Can you please make such an update to your staging draft,
so that we are ready to move forward when the copyright
issues are solved.

I haven't seen anybody reply to this except for Gerard Lang.

Can you please make the requested edit, or tell me why you
think it's not appropriate?

Regards,    Martin.
