recently-approved tags

[Tex Texin]

However, approving (more) tags of the form lang-script-region presumes
agreement for that format. Since we don't have agreement on a standard
we don't know that this is the best choice. Potentially, registering
more languages in this format locks us into a style for which we might
ultimately regret. (Because it makes spec'ing an alternative more
difficult.)

It would have been better to hold off and finish the standard.

If there isn't an urgent need for the remainder it would be better to
wait.
