It was originally about the iso-codes package and the controversy over exactly how to deal with TW, but that was indeed the last straw. In general, it's important to be *very* careful about stuff like this and to try to follow a recognized international standard as closely as possible. Issues around nationality, language, and countries are political landmines, and it's very easy to blunder into an argument that one never intended and cause significant offense. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
