Re: I can't find my language tag in Language Subtag Registry

Hi again

I still didn't get any answer on my email in 20 days now. It is a violation
of the RFC 5646 guidelines
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5646#section-3.5

Soon after the two-week review period has passed, the Language Subtag
   Reviewer MUST take one of the following actions:

   o  Explicitly accept the request and forward the form containing the
      record to be inserted or modified to <iana@iana.org> according to
      the procedure described in Section 3.3
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5646#section-3.3>.

   o  Explicitly reject the request because of significant objections
      raised on the list or due to problems with constraints in this
      document (which MUST be explicitly cited).

   o  Extend the review period by granting an additional two-week
      increment to permit further discussion.  After each two-week
      increment, the Language Subtag Reviewer MUST indicate on the list
      whether the registration has been accepted, rejected, or extended.




What can I do?
