Suggest closing, as pycountry is available and Babel is excellent.

Agreed! Like time zones country and language information are altered ever so
often. Babel, zope.i18n and pyicu provide excellent interfaces to the
information and can be updated separately from the stdlib.

New submission from pander pan...@users.sourceforge.net:
Hi all,
Does a module exist that can look up localised language names for ISO
639 language codes? If not, could one be constructed according to (sort
of) the following specifications?
1) Look up a localised language name for an ISO 639-1

I think the pycountry module might be helpful:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycountry
As it is at version 0.11, I think it is very far away of being ready for
inclusion in the standard library. If this doesn't quite do what you
want, please

Babel already provides (almost all of) this. It uses the Unicode CLDR
data to present the information you need.
