[Ltru] Possible issue: remove "first edition" from titles of standards

["Doug Ewell" <doug at ewellic.org>]

Gérard Lang has mentioned on at least two occasions (public and private) 
that the words "first edition" are not properly part of the title of ISO 
639-2 and should not be cited as such, or at least not within the 
quotation marks, as we have it in both drafts.  The ISO 639-2 Web site 
seems to corroborate this.

Upon checking, I noticed that draft-4645bis also has "first edition" in 
the title of ISO 639-3.  I don't have access to a paper copy of 639-3 
and the Web site did not resolve the question for me of whether these 
words belong in the title.

I leave it up to the co-chairs to decide whether it is worthwhile to 
open issues for this.  I mention it here only so we don't get hit with 
it again during IETF LC, or in an appeal.
