Re: [ltli] Review language-related guidanced in bp-i18n-specdev (#16)

Took a brief look at these two documents:

-----

> [From LTLI] Formulations such as "RFC 5646 or its successor" MAY be used, but only in cases where the specific document version is necessary.

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From LTLI] Specifications that need to preserve compatibility with obsolete versions of [BCP47] MUST reference the production obs-language-tag in [BCP47].

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From LTLI] Content validators SHOULD check if content uses valid language tags where feasible.

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From LTLI] Specifications SHOULD NOT reference [BCP47]'s underlying standards that contribute to the IANA Language Subtag Registry, such as ISO639, ISO15924, ISO3066, or UN M.49.

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From LTLI] Applications that provide language information as part of URIs (e.g. in the realm of RDF) SHOULD use [BCP47].

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From LTLI] Specifications SHOULD NOT restrict the length of language tags or permit or encourage the removal of extensions.

This guideline is not covered in specdev.

-----

> [From specdev] Refer to BCP 47, not to RFC 5646.

Should it mention RFC 1766 and RFC 3066, like LTLI?

-----

In addition, the following guidance are in LTLI but not in specdev:

* Unicode locale related guidelines
* language tag matching related guidelines
