Speaking of language specific ports, I've been thinking that adding
two letter country code defined in ISO3166 to PKGNAME isn't right. As
the name suggests, these codes are representing name of countries, not
languages. Since we are making *language specific* categories, I
think using language code is more appropriate. So, instead of using
ISO3166 codes, I suggest we change our convention to use code defined
by RFC1766.
Any opinion?
Cheers,
Max
