But I see people who are looking for a language subtag to denote Old English using English as a starting point in a hierarchical system such as ISO 639-6; makes sense to me. > Furthermore, if ang > can validly be labeled en, it can also be validly labeled > sco, adding another layer of complexity. I note Ethnologue have classified sco under English! But you are right, to be able to link languages by mutual intelligibility requires a multi-parent/child relationship system. That's not what I am advocating at the moment (emphasis on the word moment :-)). > It's one thing to wait for ISO 639-3, which is clearly > available in a late draft, but something that is "currently > being designed" is not something I feel it's reasonable to > expect people to wait for. We have waited some 5 years for ISO 639-3. I think for the last year people have been holding off on registration requests because of it. ISO 639-6 is due for publication in early 2008 but I don't think people should have to wait if their need is urgent; register variants via RFC4646. I have no problem with that.
