I have checked the XML-files They are OK, except of one or more space characters at the end of some entries. But these spaces could also be found in the csv-files. A space at the end of the header of BUFRCREX_CodeFlag_en_01.csv leads to a ""-tag in BUFRCREX_CodeFlag_en.xml, as a space in the header is replaces by "-" in csv2xml.py. To avoid unneeded spaces in the converted XML-files csv2xml.py could be supplemented by "field = field.rstrip()" and "header[i] = header[i].rstrip()".
