RE: [wsrp-wsia] [change request #134] Make MarkupType.locales opt ional

[Andre Kramer <andre.kramer@eu.citrix.com>]

If this is then advertising a Portlet's language capabilities, we should
allow 2 lang codes (RFC 1766) as well as the more specific lang code with
subcodes "en-US" (RFC 3066).

This would add a note to make sure that the text for locale in 6.1.9 does
not apply here:
"Locale strings can be the two letter codes of language names [RFC 1766 (ISO
3166)], three-letter codes or two letter codes with county sub codes [RFC
3066] (for example, fr-CA)."

Subject: [wsrp-wsia] [change request #134] Make MarkupType.locales
optional


Document: Spec
Section:  5.1.10
Page/Line: 19/31
Requested by: Mike Freedman
Old text: [R] string locales[]
New text: [O] string locales[]
Reasoning: Not every portlet knows the locales it is capable of returning 
content in.  Need a way to say "I don't know" or more reasonably "I will 
do my best with whatever you request".  I suggest this is the meaning of a 
null array [or alternatively an empty array].
