ISO 3166: Very useful link!

Everyone interested in the ISO 3166 topic may find an interesting article
(better said a copy of an email message, written by Cord Wischhoefer from
ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency) at:

www.ftp.uni-erlangen.de/cgi-bin/view/pub/doc/ISO/english/ISO-3166-background

Cord Wischhoefer explains the genesis of ISO 3166 standard, its parts,
reasons why something is done this or that way and gives all answers to
many questions which appeared here last few days.

I'd recommend anyone willing to discuss more on this matter to view this
brilliant text.

Regards,
Beri
