Splitting Aramaic

Voting on: Splitting Aramaic.

• Proposed action: Split the language code for Aramaic [arc] into:
  1. Old Aramaic [oar], spanning the periods of Ancient and Old Aramaic, including Imperial, Biblical Aramaic, etc.,
  2. Jewish Middle Aramaic [tmr], incompasing literary Judeo-Aramaic texts of the Middle Aramaic period, i.e. Jewish Babylonian Aramaic, etc.,
  3. and relegate [arc] to a family code, also creating sub-family codes for Eastern [arc-eas] and Western [arc-wes] Aramaic.
