Hi,<br><br>I've posted the last update of the "mis" template in<br><<a href="http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.languages/4448/raw">http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.languages/4448/raw</a>><br>about four weeks ago. The discussion about it ended,
<br>and the latest 4646bis draft covers "mis" (among other<br>obscure language tags) in section 4.1 point 4 as #5:<br><br><a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ltru-4646bis-05#page-46">http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ltru-4646bis-05#page-46
