RFC 3066 or RFC 5646 for language tags?
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- RDF General
- Raised by:
- Richard Cyganiak
- Opened on:
- 2011-05-30
- Description:
- RDF Concepts defines language tags with reference to RFC 3066.
RFC 3066 is obsoleted by RFC 5646.
Should language-tagged literals in RDF 1.1 still be defined in terms of the (simple) RFC 3066, or in terms of the (much more hairy) RFC 5646? - Related Actions Items:

[davidwood1]: RFC 3066 or RFC 5646 for language tags?
1 Jun 2011, 15:09:26RESOLVED to close ISSUE-64 by replacing the current text:
[[
Plain literals have a lexical form and optionally a language tag as defined by [RFC3066], normalized to lowercase.
]]
with:
[[
Plain literals have a lexical form and optionally a language tag as defined by [RFC5646]. The language tag, if present, MUST be well-formed according to section 2.2.9 of [RFC5646], and MUST be normalized to lowercase.
NOTE: Earlier versions of RDF permitted tags that adhered to the generic tag/subtag syntax of language tags, but were not well-formed according to [RFC5646]. Such language tags do not conform to RDF 1.1.
