Thanks... although I think we've been deliberately holding off on  
delving into schemas until we get the data dictionary nailed down,  
and we still have a few open issues there.

One in particular that I'll note... in your version you named the  
geopolitical sub-units as "primary division" and "secondary  
division", which suggest that they have a hierarchical relationship  
that doesn't actually exist.  I think we'd be wise to stick with the  
"subdivision" and "location" nomenclature, which doesn't support that  
misimpression and actually are in line with the ISO and UN/LOCODE  
terminology.
