Are you aware of inaccuracies in the ISO 639-3 standard codes for the
identification of languages relating to your area of expertise? If so,
please consider taking a fairly simple step to get them fixed! Submit a
"change request" stating the nature of the change needed, the rationale for
it, and the evidence in support of it. Change requests to be processed and
decided at the end of 2009 are now being accepted. 

Included here are the change requests for Africa that been received during
the period since the last review cycle:

Africa, Central  	btb  	 Beti (Cameroon)  	
Africa, Central 	zrn 	 Zirenkel 	
Africa, East  		nle  	 East Nyala  	
Africa, East 		lsy 	 Mauritian Sign Language 
Africa, West 		ife 	 Ifè 	
Africa, West 		nqg 	 Ede Nago 	
Africa, West 		xkb 	 Manigri-Kambolé Ede Nago 	
Africa, West 		mxx 	 Mahou 	
Africa, West 		tde 	 Tiranige Diga Dogon 	
Africa, West 		nzz 	 Nanga Dama Dogon

The submission deadline for this year is September 1, 2009. It is a good
idea to send in requests as early as possible. Requests sometimes require
clarification or expansion to be sure that everything is complete for
review and evaluation. Details on the process and the forms needed may be
found at:
