This is exactly the policy we
adopted several years ago, which has proved
insufficient.
Relying on existence of ISO codes brings us:
* split Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian replacing Serbocroatian [controverial]
* Klingon
etc
and denies various languages/dialects/whatever which don't have their own codes
but which are oft asked for.
Hi Brion, kaj saluton,
Actually I was suggesting it as a means
to pre-sift through new language requests.
Then those situations which require further
attention could be handled more delicately.
Well, that *is exactly* what we've done the last few years.
