Six new primary language subtags corresponding to new ISO 639 code
elements, plus one description change corresponding to a change in ISO
639 (listed here alphabetically by subtag):
anp Angika
frr Northern Frisian
frs Eastern Frisian
fy Western Frisian (change in description only)
gsw Swiss German; Alemanic
krl Karelian
zxx No linguistic content
I prepared a Web page describing these changes:
http://users.adelphia.net/~dewell/new-subtags.html
and announced it on December 9 (before 'zxx' was added):
http://www.alvestrand.no/pipermail/ietf-languages/2005-December/003823.html
and again on February 12:
http://www.alvestrand.no/pipermail/ietf-languages/2006-February/003907.html
According to RFC 3066bis, these new subtags are to be added to the
registry automatically, with no debate, the only caveat being that they
must not conflict with anything already existing in the registry.
