To make it even more funny: In the ICANN32 meeting in Paris in 2008, the IDN ccTLD fast track session was heavily heating, because only non-latin scripts should qualify for this "fast track" procedure. So the GAC member from UK stand up and insisted, that they need to have geographic region TLDs, too. The response from the plenum was ... "You insisting in obey the rules, word by word?" - "Yes." - "So your ISO 3166 code is GB, but you are using UK, which violates the rules. I'd suggest to clean up you mess first, ..." - the GAC member sat down, redfaced.
