Out of curiosity, I looked at that file, and realized that I had a similar file that listed country codes. I got my data from ftp://info.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes, which was last updated Thu Aug 7 17:59:51 MET DST 1997 (which is more recent that country.sql, FWIW). Anyway, I compared my file with country.sql, and saw some differences. Here they are. Ignore the strange lisp-like formatting; it's a by-product of the way that I used to do the comparison. Naturally I don't know which version is correct. cd /tmp/ diff -wu /tmp/me /tmp/him --- iso3166 Sat Apr 22 06:51:35 2000 +++ country.sql Sat Apr 22 06:50:17 2000 @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ ("american samoa" "as") ("andorra" "ad") ("angola" "ao") -
