Hello,

In http://www.iana.org/assignments/idn/index.html you say

"Script or Language Designator (Language Designators are defined in BCP 47)"

It is very good that you mention BCP 47 rather than an RFC, but the link goes to RFC 3066, which is now obsolete.  It should point to http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt which will always lead the reader to the latest version of the language tag specification (currently RFC 4646 and RFC 4647).

Please could you change asap.

Thanks,
RI
