Subject: Re: Proposed 2-letter script code standard

1.  i suggest that, instead of making just 2-letter codes,
we make both 2-letter and 3-letter codes, as was done for country names.
Then leave it to users wheter to use 2- or 3-letter codes.

2.  as i understand it, the airline codes are not ISO std (please correct 
me if i am wrong).  there are both 2-letter and 3-letter codes,
although 2-letter seems used more frequently.

3.  as to posting articles:
    as i understand it, this  mailing list is for an informal discussion, 
not the formal channel for ISO or any other standards.  
    of course, there should be formal positions of nations/organizations
at the ISO meetings.  however, it will be a good idea that we express 
personal/individual opinions here before such a formal meeting. 
(in the extreme cases, the formal positions may be different from
those of the general public, which i hope does not occur.)
