Do note that the IANA considerations of RFC 4646 mandates IANA to:

   Future work on the Language Subtag Registry SHALL be limited to
   inserting or replacing whole records preformatted for IANA by the
   Language Subtag Reviewer as described in Section 3.3 of this document
   and archiving the forwarded registration form.
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

But "archiving" perhaps does not imply "making publically
available". Do you think it should be more precise in 4646bis? If so,
I can suggest a wording.
