Your ISO 639-2 request

[Karen_Broome at spe.sony.com]

I am still waiting for resolution or an update on this request. This 
request was submitted on June 15th. I would like to know the reason for 
the continued delay of this request.

        Subject:        Your ISO 639-2 request


Dear Ms. Broome:

I apologize for the delay in processing your request. I sent it on to our
secretary (Havard Hjulstad) some time ago, but I believe he may be away on
holiday (it is that time of year). If I do not hear from him by early next
week, I will go ahead and send it to the ISO 639 JAC for discussion, which
is the next step, and will give it a shorter time frame for discussion. We
will still have to ballot it, however. Again, because of vacation
schedules that could be longer than usual, but we will try to get it
through in a timely manner, so perhaps we can get this finished in a
month.
