Multilingual documents are generally identified by their two-digit language code - these codes are an ISO standard, and the list can be found at this page. There are a couple of strings not yet standardised and so when you see a 2-digit lowercase string in front of an uppercase string, that denotes a non-standard modifier. Two are commonly used: brPT (for Brazilian Portuguese) and siZH (Simplified Chinese). Where available, the language of the document is identified in that language

CCNSO Council resolved to form a Council sub-committee to act as a steering group for the PDP, and to liaise with and assist the Issue Manager on behalf of the Council. The sub-committee will have 6 members being 1 Councillor from each geographic region and the Chair of the ccNSO Council. The Issue Manager will issue a call for volunteers shortly.
In parallel to its request for an Issue Report as a first step in launching a ccPDP on the introduction of IDN ccTLDs, the ccNSO Council will also explore the possibility of a short track/interim approach. http://ccnso.icann.org/about/minutes/resolutions-idn-from-ccnso-council-02oct07.pdf
