I18N-ISSUE-189: reference obs-language-tag instead of defining your own [TURTLE] http://www.w3.org/International/track/issues/189 Raised by: Addison Phillips On product: TURTLE http://www.w3.org/2012/08/22-i18n-minutes.html#item05 Section 6.5 (Grammar) defines LANGTAG far more permissively than BCP 47 does--even in its obsolete forms, to wit: [144s] LANGTAG ::= '@' [a-zA-Z]+ ('-' [a-zA-Z0-9]+)* It would be better to define this at least in terms of BCP 47's "obs-language-tag" production: obs-language-tag = primary-subtag *( "-" subtag ) primary-subtag = 1*8ALPHA subtag = 1*8(ALPHA / DIGIT) Although the I18N WG would prefer if you just referenced the production in Section 2.1 of BCP 47. See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47#section-2.1
