Sascha's response displayed the URL better than my original response. Apologies for the way my phone sometimes formats mail messages. To explain a bit, registration forms for the Language Subtag Registry are transactional; they represent a single action (add or modify) and are never "updated." For example, a subtag 'zzz' could be created, then have its Description changed, then be deprecated (this could happen e.g. with lesser-known languages added to 639-3). This would result in three separate registration forms. The first would be "regform-zzz"; the latter two would be "regform-zzz-yyyy-mm-dd" indicating the date of the request or approval. We've had more than 40 of these "dated" registrations already. Registrations that were part of the RFC 4645 or 5645 bulk additions do not have registration forms. I wonder sometimes what folks are looking for when they look up the registration form years after the change has been made. I still shake my head over the cross-reference, in the Wikipedia article on the Romansh language, to the LSR registration form for 'rm' that simply added a Suppress-Script. What sort of citation-worthy authority on the language does that provide? -- Doug Ewell | Thornton, CO, US | ewellic.org -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Ietf-languages] Moldovan From: Sascha Brawer <[email protected]> Date: Mon, February 11, 2019 7:04 am To: Doug Ewell <[email protected]> Cc: ietflang IETF Languages Discussion <[email protected]> Ah, got it; thank you.
