4 # ISO 639-2 language codes
6 # From http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ :
8 # The Library of Congress has been designated the ISO 639-2/RA for the
9 # purpose of processing requests for alpha-3 language codes comprising the
10 # International Standard, Codes for the representation of names of
11 # languages -- Part 2: alpha-3 code. The ISO 639-2/RA receives and reviews
12 # applications for requesting new language codes and for the change of
13 # existing ones according to criteria indicated in the standard. It
14 # maintains an accurate list of information associated with registered
15 # language codes, processes updates of registered language codes, and
16 # distributes them on a regular basis to subscribers and other parties.
18 # This is the official site of the ISO 639-2 Registration Authority and thus
19 # is the only one authorized by ISO. If you have questions concerning ISO
20 # 639-2 please contact us at:
