country based on the standard for countries that we use within the context of
the RFC. I should have said, "It does not have an ISO 3166-1 code." Sony
does not have any secret agenda against Scotland. In fact, we registered
Standard Scottish English, if you remember, and researched codes used by the
U.N for this that were otherwise unpublished. The ad hominem insinuations in
your e-mail are unfortunate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>Scotland IS a country, Karen</b> (a great country over a thousand years
older than Germany - well, even the USA is an older country than Germany!),
whatever you and Sony Corp may believe (or wish others believed). How can it be
that new countries, such as Bosnia and Kosovo and other countries only recently
emerged from bloody wars, are now being accepted as legitimate countries by the
politically-motivated using as tools lists such as this (for the purposes of
ISO 639 currently under joint US-Austrian control), who refuse to accept as
legitimate countries so many peaceful old countries with their own ancient
legal and admistrative systems, such as Scotland is? <br>
