The Library of Congress, the registration authority for ISO 639-2 (3-letter language codes) has put up some very useful pages: >The ISO 639-2 standard is at the official ISO 639-2/RA Web site: >http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/langhome.html > >The tables arranged by ISO 639-2 code include the ISO 639-1 code as well: >http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/termcodes.html >(arranged by ISO 639-2/T (terminology) code) >http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/bibcodes.html >(arranged by ISO 639-2/B (bibliographic) code) > >For further information see the ISO 639-2/RA home page: >http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ Changes to ISO 639 and ISO 639-2: http://lcweb.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/codechanges.html Please note that currently, only two-letter codes should be used in HTML, HTTP, and XML. To be able to use three- letter codes, these standards have to be updated. I have updated the W3C page on language codes at http://www.w3.org/International/O-HTML-tags.html to point to these resources. Regards, Martin.Received on Thursday, 27 April 2000 05:40:30 GMT
