Locale::Language: support 3-letter codes?

Hiya, Thanks for a useful module... it's something everyone needs to do. In the docs you say: "Currently just supports the two letter language codes - there are also three-letter codes, and numbers. Would these be of any use to anyone?" The answer is yes - I'm working with a data provider that gives me everything in 3-letter ISO codes... A minimalist 3-letter support would let me convert them into 2-letter codes without having to re-invent the wheel (ok, so its just a lookup table, but still ;-). So I'm thinking a few lookup functions: 3code2language 3code2code language2code3 code2code3 -Steve

Hmmm, I just discovered a need for this myself. This bug looks pretty stale though. Any chance of getting action on this?

Hi, just a "me too": we recently received another request for 3-letter codes at <http://bugs.debian.org/513047> -- Niko Tyni ntyni@debian.org
