Hello, my name is Savvas Radevic. I found the contact emails here: http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ No modern language has "Modern" in its description. This causes confusion between users of iso639-2.
For example, English: English English anglais engen English, Middle (1100-1500) English, Middle (1100-1500) anglais moyen (1100-1500) enm English, Old (ca.450-1100) English, Old (ca.450-1100) anglo-saxon (ca.450-1100) ang ..and French: French French français fre/frafr French, Middle (ca.1400-1600) French, Middle (ca.1400-1600) français moyen (1400-1600) frm French, Old (842-ca.1400) French, Old (842-ca.1400) français ancien (842-ca.1400) fro However, Greek: Greek, Ancient (to 1453) Greek, Ancient (to 1453) grec ancien (jusqu'à 1453) grc Greek, Modern (1453-) Greek, Modern (1453-) grec moderne (après 1453) gre/ellel as listed in: http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/English_list.php I trust that my voice will be heard and appreciated. I represent a free/open source community (www.ubuntu-gr.org) that wants to fix this error. Here are some bug reports: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?group_id=30316&atid=413077&func=detail&aid=312565 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=605057 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=517262 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iso-codes/+bug/267513 We propose "Greek, Modern (1453-)" to be written as just "Greek", as it happens in other languages (such as English and French). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
