Now that the bug has been fixed, having a DTDcould probably help in developing a package of utilities to actually *exploit* the iso-codes data. For instance, having an utility to map codes to any other fields such as names (short and full for countries), or even codes to names in whichever language, would help a lot. I already have applications for this in d-i, actually, which would help in getting rid of the *.tab files. IMHO, finding someone with good XML (and possible gettext) skills to develop this would help. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
