[co-chair hat on] This one was a bit more complicated :-(.

I think we have consensus for the following version of point 2 of 
Section 2.2.3.

   2.  Script subtags consist of four letters and were defined according
       to [ISO15924] ("Information and documentation -- Codes for the
       representation of names of scripts"), or subsequently assigned by
       the ISO 15924 registration authority or governing standardization
       bodies. Script subtags denote the script or writing system used
       in conjunction with this language. Only codes assigned by ISO
       15924 will be considered for registration.

This is mostly Addison's version, with the last sentence of the 
paragraph added back in, and with the title fixed as pointed out by Kent.

I hope this should address the concern of the commenter, and will be 
acceptable to everybody on the WG.

Regards,    Martin.
