Private-use identifiers are meant more for things like internal coding within an application; such as where you'd want to indicate that a document is not in a human language, or maybe a special mixed setting that's specific to your organization's internal usage such as "not yet inspected for coding" or something. Per spec: "These identifiers may only be used locally, and may not be used in interchange without a private agreement." The purpose of using language codes on the web as we do is explicitly for interchange with browser software, end users (as a navigation marker in the URL), and content reusers. - -- brion -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkx0hcACgkQwRnhpk1wk44wGgCg09XgjA6cu1G+SRQLzEsBAXLZ 1ToAnRC6BfYMDAr086q34+qG1K4OBrsf =VpUJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
