Subject: RE: [xacml] Groups - Export Control - U.S. (EC-US)
The 2-letter list is freely available and normative. I know of EC implementations that use this list for this particular purpose. http://www.iso.org/iso/english_country_names_and_code_elements ...................... From the ISO FAQ page: The alpha-2 code is the most widely used one of the three and apart from that it is the basis for other coding systems which attach further alphabetical or numeric characters to the alpha-2 code elements. Examples are the currency codes from ISO 4217 or the UN/LOCODE. In the late 1990s, the World Wide Web made the alpha-2 country code more and more popular through its ubiquitous use as country code Top-Level Domain Identifiers (ccTLDs) in the Internet domain name system (DNS). ....................... IETF, IANA, and ICANN use the ISO 3166-1 alpha 2-letter codes. I vote to use this 2-letter country code list for the EC-US profile. -----Original Message----- From: bill parducci [mailto:bill@parducci.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 7:04 AM To: Erik Rissanen Cc: Smith, Martin; Anil Saldhana; Tyson, Paul H; Tolbert, John W; XACML TC Subject: Re: [xacml] Groups - Export Control - U.S. (EC-US) On May 25, 2009, at 11:30 PM, Erik Rissanen wrote: > > BTW, how much does the 3-letter spec cost? It looks like it is somewhere in the neighborhood of $400/E300. http://www.iso.org/iso/search.htm?qt=3166&searchSubmit=Search&sort=rel&t ype=simple&published=true Personally I am against paying for something like this as a matter of principle ;) b
