RE: [codelist] a codelist

["Paul Spencer" <paul.spencer@boynings.co.uk>]

I have several codelists in the UBL format or in Excel that could probably be changed into (G|g)enericode (I've forgotten which we agreed!) using a stylesheet. Some are just the UN Cefact lists and most are pretty simple. The only one a little more complex is a country code list with all three (numeric-3, alpha-2, alpha-3) codes.

Happy to send these to anyone, or I might have time to do one myself.

Regards

Paul
