I agree with you.

>BTW if no-generic is really generic, then "no" would be good enough; 

Actually, no-oub is the official standard so no should be the same as no-oub. 
I'll fix that.

>idem

I just did an audit of the names and no was the only one in that state.

I'm in complete agreement with you. The Norwegian text table was the only one 
which didn't have a basic name, and that was an oversight. Thank you for 
bringing it to my attention.

>Keep it as short as possible, and keep standard without any - or _.

Yes, for the standard tables. We do offer optional tables, and such delimiters 
within the names are useful in those cases.

>IMHO:
>en_US was standard, so en should be the standard, not en_US,

Actually, we use NABCC for the standard English table. What we do is make en 
include en-nabcc.

>same for other languages. There is always a standard in each language!

Yes. For example, fr includes fr-2007.
