Lars Marius Garshol reported from the Montreal Meeting
(Second ISO meeting of 2007) August 2007:

Note on OASIS PSI sets for languages and countries
  http://psi.oasis-open.org/

in the section:

"Dublin Core in Topic Maps"

The strawman proposal was discussed, and the basic mapping was
not changed substantially, but a number of new issues were
brought up, and it's clear that it needs to be extended quite
a bit. The general messiness of the Dublin Core specs made the
discussion a bit confused, but a good bit of progress was made,
and there is every reason to think that the next draft will be
quite close to the real thing.

The discussion of dc:language brought up the issue of what to
do about the old OASIS PSI sets for languages and countries.
There was a general feeling that ISO should take this over and
produce a TR containing the general principles for the PSI sets,
and then a web site that actually hosts them where they are
updated regularly. However, no decision was made on when this
work would be started.
