This is absolutely incorrect. One has to pay to buy a hard copy of these standards, and I think part 2 of ISO 3166 can only be obtained by purchase. But the code tables for ISO 3166-1 and ISO 639-1/-2 are published on-line, and it there are no fees required to make use of the identifiers in these code tables, including in commercial products. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Constable Non-Roman Script Initiative, SIL International 7500 W.
