Dear Doug, Experience shown (with EU representatives being present on the list) that "EU" was not considered by the ietf-languages at alvestrand.no supposed reviewer of the IANA Language Subtags and Extension Registries as part of ISO 3166 codes and therefore the leading economic language "en-EU" could not be documented along with the IANA registry. The implications of your kind of points IANA/ISO respective weight and importance and the resulting implications on the DNS root(s) and IDNs are key questions right now in Athens. I understand that you are here. May I suggest we try to spot one another and quickly discuss this. jfc At 20:45 31/10/2006, Doug Barton wrote: >Randy Bush wrote: > >> Now I know that you THINK you want it, because you want to make a case > >> for preserving YOUR ccTLD.
