Zdravo,
hvala za povezave - in pardon za angleščino, sem poslal isto vprašanje tudi na tei-l.
Tam dobil nasvet kako trenutno označit, ko ni v ISO, in sicer sl-x-Boho, pri čemer je -x za privatne razširitve.
Verjetno res ne bi bilo slabo prijavit na ISO (pa potem tudi dajnčico in metelčico), me pa kar glava zaboli, ko vidim ta njihova pravila. No, mogoče vseeno ugriznem v to kislo jabelko..
lp,
Tomaž

Hello,

I guess it is just that the ISO-15924 standard should be officially
extended with the "Boho" code.

Here is a notice of changes from ISO of that standard:
http://unicode.org/iso15924/codechanges.html

This means they regularly add new scripts if  there is a reasonable request.

And here are the rules about adding new scripts (see article A.3.3):
http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/standard/index.html#annex

So I guess the application for "Boho" must be officially presented to
the correct ISO body. :)

Lp, m.

> Even taking it as a script (so I could write sl-Boho), http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/CH.html#CHSH does say that they should be taken from ISO 15924, http://unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html and there is no Boho there; I also can't find an extension mechanism as there is with languages.
