Actually, I did raise some issues which, as far as I can tell, have gone unanswered. And that was not with a detailed look at the names proposal.

Fundamentally: the proposal claims that the changes are to "more universally accepted" -- what authority is being used to identify such?

Lacking any information on the authority in use, I turned to iso639 and with just a cursory glance found some of the proposed names are not there -- so presumably some other authority is being referenced?

I know that a number of people reviewed the list of proposed changes, but I didn’t receive any comments. If there are no objections, I’d like to propose that Vlad also add this to his working draft.
