Guenther <mailto:[log in to unmask]> Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2006 06:03 Subject: ISO 639 encoding proposal: Plautdietsch Dear Dennis Quiring, Your proposal to encode "Plautdietsch" in ISO 639-2 has been received long ago and discussed by the ISO 639 RAs Joint Advisory Committee (JAC). I am sorry that the proposal has been very long in the pipeline. Part of the reason for the delay is the finalization of ISO 639-3, which extends the alpha-3 language code to include some 7000 languages. The item in question is encoded in ISO 639-3. That part of ISO 639 will become an International Standard very soon. Please see http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=pdt for documentation of how the item is encoded in ISO 639-3. It may be that the encoding in ISO 639-3 makes an encoding in ISO 639-2 superfluous. The identifier would be the same (pdt), and the scope of the encoding would be the same. Please send any comment to me and I shall forward it to the JAC for consideration.
