en-IE means Hiberno-English. en-GB means British English. en-US means
American English. Signed English isn't really related to the specific
dialect of English.
What we have is ISL, BSL, ASL being used with more-or-less exact
English syntax and structure. But it's still ISL, BSL, and ASL in
terms of the signs.
