I also knew that productions 33 through 38 had been made obsolete by an erratum and that the only normative reference for xml:lang values was RFC 1766. That's why I said the 2-letter language code *portion* of xml:lang values. This is in reference to those RFC 1766 conforming language identifiers that include 2-letter language codes. The text of RFC 1766 describes exactly when and where those codes are to be used.
