The 2029-09-09 date was a placeholder in draft-4645bis, and was intended 
to be easy to spot so that IANA could replace it with the real date. 
Evidently this was a success, because IANA made all the proper 
adjustments.  You should see 2009-07-29 for the thousands of new 
subtags.

CE and everyone else: the Registry is at 
http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry as always. 
Please don't use draft-4645bis as a surrogate for the Registry.  It is 
no longer even accurate in that regard, as we have made changes.
