I18N-ISSUE-302: Unclear reference to "value space" of language tags [.prep-RDF1.1] http://www.w3.org/International/track/issues/302 Raised by: Addison Phillips On product: .prep-RDF1.1 URI: http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-rdf11-concepts-20130723/#section-Graph-Literal In Section 3.3 of this document, there is a discussion of language tags, with a bullet point that reads: -- a non-empty language tag as defined by [BCP47]. The language tag MUST be well-formed according to section 2.2.9 of [BCP47]. Lexical representations of language tags MAY be converted to lower case. The value space of language tags is always in lower case. -- It's not clear what "The value space of language tags is always lower case" means in this context. Does it means that RDF expects a mapping to lower case? It is not the case that language tags themselves have a lower case requirement or expectation.
