Michael, Do you have sufficient documentation to submit official requests for the languages in question? If so, please do. Håvard -----Original Message----- From: ISO 639 Joint Advisory Committee [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Michael Everson Sent: 1. april 2003 00:18 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Official languages Tetum is now an official language of Timor Leste. It has no 639 code. Seselwa, a French Creole, is an official language of the Seychelles. It has no 639 code. Information I got from "Pays et capitales du monde", a publication of Conseil National de l'Information Géographique, which I received while at the 3166 meetings in Paris earlier this month. This report noted other languages which had no codes, but it turns out that they only had 3-letter codes, and the compilers were only looking at 639-1. Tigrinya has ti which the investigators must have missed. Haitian Creole was listed as having no code. Palauan has pau in 639-2 Tok Pisin has tpi in 639-2 -- Michael Everson * * Everson Typography * * http://www.evertype.com
