Hi Eric (just to keep the thread and putting Addison in the loop), I agree with the proposal from Addison at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg-comments/2007Apr/0018.html . If you don't here from other i18n core participants within this week, regard the issue as closed. (I'm not putting the closed prefix on the front of the mail subject to give people some time).

Also, note that matching defined in RFC4647 does not use sub tag information from e.g. the underlying ISO standards. Such information is described in RFC 4646for the purpose of language tag validation, a process independent of language tag matching. The validation process uses the IANAlanguage sub tag registry [http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry]. >> >> >> Proposal for replacement of the second sentence: >> \"RFC 4647 defines matching of language tags against basic and extended languageranges.
