In the "experimental" folder on Sourceforge forge for both biblatex and biber. Both at version 4.
- LANGID is an override for the language of the fields in an entry (at least when the biber "msstrict" is enabled). What to do about LANGIDOPTS field?
- "sortlocale" option should be output in the .bcf as BCP47 ideally. No clean way of doing this currently
- babel shorthands are not activating in the
\namepart<part><msform><mslang>and\listitem<msform><mslang>auto-created macros currently. Something to do with these being defined in the preamble but this is not obvious. They are being created in\blx@bblendcurrently. Not critical but nice to have. - Currently using hard-coded BCP47<->babel/polyglossia/biblatex language identifier rules. Users can override the BCP47-> direction if needed. This all needs replacing with a proper BCP47<->langid mapping package to insulate us from babel/polyglossia variations as it doesn't help if polyglossia supports BCP47 but babel doesn't.
