I do not >believe there is any evidence that the stability of the extra layer will >cause the problems you have described. I would be very interested in your description of this layer. The draft proposes a tag layer where the tag = "ISO 639"+"ISO 15924"+"ISO 3166". I fail to understand how tag is inderpendent from a change in one of the ISO subtags. An independent layer would be xml:lang="jefsey-2005" and "jefsey-2005" being documented at http://jefsey.langtags.org. jfc _______________________________________________ Ltru mailing list Ltru@lists.ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ltru
