I filed a bug about this (in fact very old) issue [1]. I recommend the interested parties to "sit" on that bug. In case no satisfying outcome, then it will be handled by the WG according to process. I also recommend that the issue of what the default language for a document without any language tags applied, is filed as a bug. One doesn't need to be a member of the WG to file a bug. http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8088 -- leif halvard silli
