yes, clearly.
the original question was, yesterday, where
to get a list of countries for a 'person' fill-out form,
for example, for posting and packaging, i assume.
All national postal organizations in the world exchange international
mail between them in containers carrying ISO 3166-1 codes
In machine-readable passports the three letter code of ISO 3166-1 is
used to determine the nationality of the user (ISO/IEC 7501-1)
Currencies are identified by a code based on the ISO 3166-1 which
identifies them in international transactions (ISO 4217)
The Internet domain name sytems uses ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes to define
country-coded Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs)
etc,etc.
so I still think ISO 3166 is the best list for the job :)
$3c and rising,
