Section 3.4.3, 1st para: "language ... as defined by [RFC 3066]or its
successor(s) in the IETF Standards Track."  RFC 3066 is *not* on the
IETF Standards Track, it is BCP 47.  Its successor is now approved but
not yet published (no RFC number yet, known as 3066bis).  We recommend
to change the reference to BCP 47
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt), which will in due time
point to the new RFC.  This would require no other change to that
section, but ensure that the enriched semantics provided by 3066bis, and
the new language subtag registry (which is already live) are taken into
account.
