Hoi, We ask for an ISO 639-3. This does not change anything. Thanks, GerardM

I was going to hold off on this until the holidays are over, but rather remarkably, unless somebody hacked the Library of Congress's web site https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_changes.php, Montenegrin has been granted an ISO 639–2 code ("cnr"). This has been in the air over the last month, and represents the first addition to ISO 639–2 in over five years. The Montenegrin community is jumping for joy, and I've just full-protected the page Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Montenegrin 5 https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Montenegrin_5 on Meta because the discussion is getting out of hand.
If srwiki, hrwiki and bswiki didn't exist, we wouldn't have to create this one, either. But I have to admit that I don't really see any way we can currently justify not approving this project (as "eligible"). My questions are, therefore:
- Am I right about that?
- Is LangCom willing to see this project marked as "eligible" based on
an ISO 639-2 code alone?
- The rules are that non-collective ISO 639-2 codes are supposed to be
reflected in ISO 639-3 as well. So do I wait until this code is published by SIL?
- If so, what happens if SIL does not take action?
