That's fine, as these business applications should continue to work because the old IDs will continue to be maintained. If a new ISO country code is established but no ID is created (because there's no timekeeping need for one), the applications can continue to use the same IDs they were using before.
Do you believe it is equitable/fair/just to discriminate against that country?
We're no more discriminating against that country than against Yorkshire or Cornwall.

But it doesn't. And there is no such rule at present. -- Clive D.W. Feather | If you lie to the compiler, Email: clive@davros.org | it will get its revenge. Web: http://www.davros.org | - Henry Spencer Mobile: +44 7973 377646
