iso19139 multilingual template shows "null" for certain languages #4786

The problem seem the language code used for example for German in the template #GE, but the code that manages the translation from iso2code to iso3code uses the Languagesdatabase table seem and expects DE:

multilingual-md

instead of using the mapping defined in the gmd:locale:

Probably other places rely on the Languagesdatabase table. What do you think @fxprunayre, should we update the template to use the codes from the database? Or can be usual that other codes are used as long as they are mapped in the gmd:locale elements?

According to the specs, I believe we need to use the values from gmd:locale If we need something from the database then I believe we have to gogmd:locale-> <gmd:LanguageCode codeList="" codeListValue="ger"/> and then use ger to get data from database.
