--- Comment #4 from Katrin Fischer <[email protected]> ---
I am torn, maybe we should ask for some other opinions.

Having the list in the database will always require maintenance. If a code or
description in the standard changes, we cannot update existing installations
assuming they have made changes. There might be a constant need of maintenance
for the libraries to do.

And even if we make them translatable via the database - the list is LONG (see
http://www.loc.gov/marc/languages/language_code.html) We will still put the
translation work on the individual users instead of shipping with all the
translations they might need or install.

I feel such "standard" things are better as hardcoded lists to be honest and
change the few you might want to change with other means (jquery comes to
mind). 

Also see how we do it for XSLT with MARC21 (including a script to do the
updating) on bug 20364.
