using ISO for lists of countries etc.

[Clytie Siddall <clytie riverland net au>]

Hello :)

I'm working my way through Evolution for Gnome 2.12, and yet again  
I'm having to fill in a huge list of countries. (The file was partly- 
translated, so I can't just fill them in from my compendium/tmx.)

I would suggest that Gnome files use the current ISO lists. Having  
translated those once, it seems a waste of effort and file space, to  
me, to have to do it over and over in different Gnome files.

The ISO-3166 lists include country names, state/province names,  
languages and currencies for the world. They are freely available and  
up-to-date, and would be an excellent system resource. Most likely,  
they are already there.

Would it be a complex task for Gnome files to access these files?

<sigh> back to the huge, redundant list...
