The first revision to the IETF Internet Standards Draft proposal for an IANA-managed registry of ISO4217 alpha-3 like currency and currency-like commodity identifiers has now been published.
The basic idea behind X-ISO4217-A3 is to provide a mechanism for the open identification of currencies or currency-like commodities on the internet that is unencumbered by the limitations of the traditional ISO4217 registry.
This latest revision integrates the following changes:
- Complete section on input treatment.
- Expand treatment of formatting and add section on prefix
selection in response to feedback from Bill McQuillan.
- Change ISO identifier to 'Z' in response to feedback
from Bill McQuillan.
- Add IANA notes on handling ISO duplicate assignments.
- Modify IANA considerations regarding code maintenance.
- Correct formatting and typographic errors.
While the latest draft should shortly be available at
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-stanish-x-iso4217-a3-01 it can be accessed immediately via the IFEX Project at
