@er: ops, it looks like my message didn't get into the mailing list for some 
reason.

SIL International rejected the petition to incorporate qcv_ES into ISO 639-3 
for Valencian, as you
can read here:

http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/cr_files/PastComments/CR_Comments_2006-129.pdf

The reasons for the rejection are, in short:

1. The Language spoken in Catalonia, València, Andorra and the
Balearic Islands is unique and understandable by all its users, as
defended by the official Valencian organizations: Consell Valencià de
Cultura CVC and Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua AVL.

2. The official statement of the Supreme Court of Spain is that even
if Valencian and Catalan have different names, are the same language.

So I am OK if qvc_ES is included as something reserved for local use, as anyone 
can do as they please 
with it, but Valencian should be properly identified in the future with a 
proper BCP47/RFC5646 
language tag and that is what the translation should use.

I am relieved to know that there will be no document content using this weird 
locale.
