RE: draft-ietf-ltru-4645bis-10.txt issue with preferred value for YU

Hi Tex,

I don't think this is probably appropriate, at least for this list to consider.

1. You haven't posted to LTRU's mailing list, only ietf-languages@, yet.

2. Even if draft-4645bis is approved, the process for language tags (in either RFC 4646 or its proposed successor) allow you to register the information you want, if you think it was inappropriately omitted.

Internationalization is not a feature.
It is an architecture.
