A previous message to the INSOFT-L Internationalization of Software

Apparently, everyone who provided one of the consolidated answers (and
me, too) misread the original question. Oops.

and everybody answered with the ISO Country codes.
The iso language codes are in ISO 639, 2-letter code,
and there was a work going on about 3-letter codes. It seems to have
failed at the DIS stage. Anyway there is an extraxt of an
older version available in dkuug.dk:i18n/iso-cd-639-2

Looks like nobody actually read the question. All the answers were
about 3-character country codes, not _language_ codes. If somebody
has the correct list, I would be interested, too...

The following list seems like a country code to me. Does anyone knows
ISO has such a standard call Language Code?

For the United Kingdom, I usually see (and use) "uk", not "gb".
