[Ltru] XML

Hash: SHA1

I guess there is already software that can read the subtag registry as
it is today, but i think if it was XML based, the whole process would
work as it were on steroids, especially in the long run. Then one could
use streaming XML APIs, and XSLT to read the registry.

I'm not doing a schema for this sample just yet, but a sample of what
they could look like follows below. One could have a parent element of
Prefixes for an array of Prefix elements, but i think it could also be
represented w/o it, as shown below.

<Record>
	<Type>variant</Type>
	<Subtag>baku1926</Subtag>
	<Description>
	Unified Turkic Latin Alphabet (Historical)
	</Description>
	<Added>2007-04-18</Added>
	<Prefix>az</Prefix>
	<Prefix>ba</Prefix>
	<Prefix>crh</Prefix>
