If I wanted to create a HTML version of the language subtag registry,
then I would tag the entire registry with lang="en" (<html lang="en">),
while each entr in the registry perhaps could look like this:
<hr/>
<p>Type: language<br/>
Subtag: <dfn lang="zxx">aa</dfn><br/>
Description: Afar<br/>
Added: 2005-10-16</p>
Question: Do you agree with the choice of language tag for the <dfn>
element around the very language tag?
The chose 'zxx' ('No linguistic content') is based on
<http://people.w3.org/rishida/utils/subtags/index.php?find=linguist&submit=Find>,
which lists "machine-readable data files consisting of machine
languages or character codes, programming source code, etc" as example
of things which could use this tag.
