The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Language Tags and Ranges in LDAP ' <draft-zeilenga-ldap-rfc2596-05.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Ted Hardie. Technical Summary This document describes how language tags and ranges are carried in LDAP and are to be interpreted by LDAP implementations. It replaces RFC 2596, and it contains signficant changes: it adds support for language ranges; provides a mechanism for discovery of whether a server supports language tags and ranges; and it clarifies how attributes with multiple language tags are to be treated. The approach described is signficantly different from the approach in X.500; the document summarizes those differences in a non-normative appendix. Working Group Summary This document is not the product of a working group, but it do go through IETF Last Call; no objections were received. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed by Ted Hardie for the IESG.
