The corpus will contain texts that represent every sub-dialect as well as texts
that cannot be identified as for their subdialectal basis.
The dictionary gives forms in supra-dialectal standard Resian along with
normalised forms for the major sub-dialects of Bela/San Giorgio, Njiva/Gniva,
Osojane/Oseacco and Solbica/Stolvizza.
If, in a future project, example sentences are to be included in the dictionary,
such sentences could be taken from any of the sub-dialects.

You are right, before the 1994 orthography there did not exist any codified
spelling convention. The subtag *-1994* only contrasts with everything not
written according to the proposed standard, either before or after that date.
