that the registry just shows “Description: something”. And the two items may or
may not be near each other in the registry. For casual users trying to find the
right code element (especially with minority languages), this might lead to
mis-tagging or inappropriate choices. The 4646bis draft, therefore, is
currently requiring the editor of 4645bis (that’d be Doug) to avoid duplicates
and will impose future limitations on registry entries to try and ensure that such
confusion doesn’t arise. It isn’t *<b>required</b>* that ISO 639 change
descriptions too, but it would be nice.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

finally answer your question) is that the same name cannot be used for two
different code elements by rule, since the reference name status isn’t cited in
the registry (it’s supposed to be first, though).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
