Subject: Re: Setting the document language on the HTML tag in epub3

I just tried to generate an epub (something I don't usually do) having
set the `lang` variable to `sv` and as far as I can see every .xhtml
file in the archive has an attribute `xml:lang="sv"`, and the default
templates for both epub3 and epub2 have an `$if(lang)$
xml:lang="$lang$"$endif$` in the `html` tag. So one or both of the
following must be the case:
- Your version of pandoc is outdated.
- You are using a custom template which lacks the `$if(lang)$
xml:lang="$lang$"$endif$` in the `html` tag.
I suggest upgrading pandoc and/or adding the needed bit to you template.
