There seems to be no progress whatsoever on deciding what prefix should
be assigned to the proposed variant subtag 'erzgeb' for Erzgebirgisch.
Most of the discussions earlier this month seemed to hinge on the notion
of "changing" the prefix if more information becomes available in the
future (which change is not allowed), or of using the collection code
'gem' as the prefix, as if it were a macrolanguage (which would be
inappropriate, since collections are not macrolanguages).
Unless Thomas Goldammer and the rest of the list can decide on a single
Prefix field in the next few days, I suggest the Reviewer reject this
request as premature, with the proviso that it can be reintroduced at
any time, now that the new Registry is in place and all of the proposed
Prefix fields are available.
