Project Name? #62

Closed abhibeckert closed 2 years ago

abhibeckert commented 2 years ago

Is there a reason this project is named iso3166?

Surely CountryCodes (or something more inventive) would make this a lot more usable. I personally rename it in all my use statements, but I'd rather not do that.

The current name seems the most logical to me. "Country codes" is much broader and includes at least 2 other standards, ISO 3166-1 is a common enough standard that it is commonly searched for by developers who need to implement it (this is also how I found it, and probably wouldn't have found it otherwise). If a developer has a personal issue with typing those few letters and numbers, I don't see any disadvantage to the solution of using a use statement that you outlined.
