Olle,
having thought about your comments for a while while on travel,
I feel that:

1) The stuff about iana-art, iana-hum and iana-ukn, I don't like.
   The reason is that iana-hum and iana-art look like prefixes, and you
   want to tack stuff onto the end. iana-c and iana-simula are more likely
   candidates. If you have something that you haven't registered with
   IANA, use X-language (x-loglan).
   I think I will add iana-c to the references!
   iana-ukn MAY be a good idea, but I would prefer iana-unknown, or
   state explicitly that the header should be missing or empty on this case.

2) The stuff about registering enough information is good. I will add
   a registration form as an appendix, requesting the information you
   want.
   Main tags can only be registered through ISO, so registration forms
   for these should not be required here. 
   Something like:


IANA registration form for subtags for language codes

1) Main tag it is to be registered with:

2) Subtag requested:

3) Original name of language, expressed in ASCII:

4) English name of language:

5) French name of language, expressed in ASCII:

6) Literature reference defining or descrbing the language:


7) Name and E-mail address of applicant:

Most of the editing stuff, I think I will insert without further comment.

                         Harald A
