Background and additional information:
This is based on a proposal that was submitted on 2003-05-07 and
circulated
to the JAC for comments on 2003-05-17. Some comments have been submitted.
Arguments have been presented against including the item in the alpha-2
table, and indeed no conclusive evidence has been provided in favour of
the
inclusion. The question is still retained on the ballot form, since there
is
no clear consensus not to include it from the submitted comments.
Some of the comments have been relating to the issue of retaining "wen" as
a
group identifier for Sorbian (or as a rest group identifier for "other
Sorbian languages"). Evidence has been presented in favour of retaining
the
group identifier, and no proposal will be made to deprecate it.
The proposed alpha-3 identifier is different from the Ethnologue
identifier
("WEE").
