Hi wosch@FreeBSD.org, brian@FreeBSD.org
CC current
  ( This involves src & 2 (so far) ports, but not cross posted ... )

Ref:
A	/usr/share/misc/na.phone	<  current/src/share/misc/
B	/usr/local/share/misc/uk.phone	<  current/ports/misc/uk.phone
C	/usr/local/share/misc/de.phone	<  current/ports/german/phone
D	/usr/share/misc/inter.phone	<  current/src/share/misc/

Format Examples:
A	510:Oakland:California:CA
B	01227 xxxxx+          :Canterbury, Kent
C	089:München
D	49:89:Munich:Germany, Fed. Rep. of

I suggest we Should :

- Add to /usr/share/misc/inter.phone:
	1:*:See /usr/share/misc/na.phone:United States Of America

- Strip/merge inconsistent/duplicate info, EG
	de.phone:	001201:Morristown, and Newark, (Northeast) New Jersey
	na.phone:	201:Ashbury Park:New Jersey:NJ
        na.phone:	201:Newark:New Jersey:NJ

- Sort German list & Add:
	0130:Null tarif (Freephone)
	0177:Handy (Mobile)
	01802:Ortstarif (Local)			12 pf Einmalig (Single unit)
	01803:Regional tarif			24pf/minute
	01805:Fern tarif (Long Distance) 	48pf/minute
	01904:Commercial		 	80pf/minute
	01906:Commercial		 	80pf/minute
	01901:Commercial			120pf/minute
	01902:Commercial			120pf/minute
	01903:Commercial			120pf/minute
	01905:Commercial			120pf/minute
	01907:Commercial			240pf/minute
	01909:Commercial			240pf/minute
	01908:Commercial (Support Desk, Pornography etc)	360pf/minute

I suggest we Could :

- Use consistent format in all files , & preferably
	no 00 prefixes (use '+' if we must), use '.' not '=' & no spaces,
	(to support Hayes auto dialer type devices, & be compatible with
	 phone exchange logs etc).

- Possibly unify where src/ & ports/ install to, something like this:
		xx=/usr[/local]/share/misc/phone
		$xx/International
		$xx/1_usa
		$xx/44_uk
		$xx/49_de
	( possibly having ports install sym links from /usr/share/misc/? to 
	 /usr/local/share/misc/? ? )

Maybe rather than taking odd national databases in variant formats, someone
may know of a uniform international list, maybe by whoever took over CCITT ?
  (& if it's on the net but copyright, no great problem, the ports install
   could invoke a make fetch.
