*shrug*

I assume that the resolution will be to add a new 3-letter code element
for "Carib languages" and retire the old.

If they don't do so in time, clearly the -2/-3 name has to win, simply
because it has priority.  I suspect what happened was that the 639-5
working group simply missed the reassignment.
