From a separate email from erik@netscape.com: http://cal-parks.ca.gov/ has this tag: <HTML LANG="ENG"> This is using a 3-letter language code. There is a new RFC on this: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt?number=3066 It points to the language code authority: http://lcweb.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ Here we find that "eng" is indeed a valid code. The RFC says that the codes are case-insensitive, so "ENG" is valid too. However, we do not support the 3-letter codes yet: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/intl/locale/src/langGroups.properties So, we need to add the 3-letter codes to that table.
