Just after I sent this, I received a separate email from another RFC editor casting doubt on this URI. Please disregard my previous email until they have concluded their internal discussions, which will hopefully be just a few days away. In the meantime, I can use this email for some positive purpose too: Note that the document at the end of whatever URI is decided on contains the concatenation of both RFC 4646 and RFC 4647. Not a lot of people realise that. I believe they will improve the text at the top of the file to make that clearer in future.
