[Ltru] Publication of language subtag registration templates

[Stephane Bortzmeyer <[e-mail]>]

Yesterday, several subtags were added to the Language Subtag Registry
(Kore, biske, njiva, etc).

The registration templates do not appear in
http://www.iana.org/assignments/lang-subtags-templates/index.html

Is it just a matter of time or is there, in your opinion, something
wrong in the process?

(I attach an email pertaining to the previous discussion about this
subject.)

Hi,

Sorry for the slow response on this.  I'll be honest and say that I'm  
still not entirely clear what IANA should be doing in this case, so  
please do not take anything I say as definitive or concrete as to how  
IANA will meet this community's requirements.  We are definitely open  
to suggestions here...

So, we've started making the forms people submit (after approval by  
the IESG designated expert) available at:

http://www.iana.org/assignments/lang-subtags-templates/index.html

Is this what is desired?

Clear obligations would be deeply appreciated.

Actually, not as I understand it.  IANA only receives the approved  
forms sent to us by the IESG designated expert.
