Re: Language subtag registration form

Hi,

A variant subtag must be at least five letters or four digits in length, but not more than eight characters (regardless of whether it is made of letters or digits). Take a little more time to look over section 2.2.5 perhaps? https://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47#section-2.2.5

Thanks,

Addison

Hi,

Thank you for your careful feedback. An amended registration form follows. The subtag is now the set of characters common to both the English, Danish, and Bornholmsk word for the language.

Hello,

The requested subtag ‘bornholmsk’ is more than eight letters/digits long, and thus invalid. You should consider how to abbreviate it appropriately or choose an appropriate alternate representation that “fits”. Also, the Suppress-Script and Macrolanguage fields must not appear in a variant record (the ‘da’ subtag probably has the script field already; macrolanguage is not applicable to Danish).
