Dear All,

So, if we go with extlang, how should I tag some Mandarin text? Let's say I am creating content. I have no history of previous tagging and I have no idea whether the text is also in any other language?

zh-cmn or cmn?

And also please can someone explain why, because I'm going to have to teach this to a very confused set of users (not least of which is me).

Yours,
Martin
