Re: Proposal recommendation to Wc3 implimentation

Hi Guys

I understand, but this is why I thought it would be a good idea to 
include the basic countries, under Europe, Americas, Latin America, 
Asia, the Orient etc..
than for any other countries needed to be added use the html5 's 
dataList I think it is called. Then we could even have a data list to 
remove countries from the list.

Do not let boss greed prevent you from prospering :)

This leads coders to include the missing and stop when the Boss does not see anything missing.  It is not a good way for Consultancies to work.  A Strategy Markup Language[1], Data Journalism[2], Linked Data ID Server[3], or a Cloud have to work in a different way.

Also, the fine structure of imports in world trade is much more complex than that of exports.  The evidence is that "The Silk Road" between Asia and Europe worked so well because the two local naming Authorities on either end made the mid-route secure per force although for practical reasons did not bother with interoperability.
