I think that would be an interesting example.  It's also interesting  
because it lists the older 639-1 and 639-2 codes as well as the new 639-3  
code.  The new code can serve as a key for the full code list, the older  
codes cannot (since they are only defined for a subset of the entries in  
639-3).  However, when we get to version 2.0 and derived code lists, there  
is a possible extra requirement for generating code lists by removing rows  
for which a particular key is not defined (e.g. remove all rows from the  
639-3 code list table except those that have a 639-2 code).

Cheers, Tony.
