Comments on the Request for Khanty

[Melinda lyons]

Dear Doug and Sascha,

As the Registrar for languages under ISO 639-3, I have reviewed the request
for subtags for Khanty. There is a strong possibility that two or three
separate language codes may be needed for these varieties. I have been
trying to locate material that provides the evidence needed to consider
this split.

Based on the earlier concerns about giving a subtag to Elfdalian, we may
want to hold off on the request for Khanty for a few weeks, to determine if
these will receive separate three-letter language tags.
