Announcement, 1994-02-02

At this point the fourth edition of ISO 3166 appears. It can *now* be ordered from national standards institutions. The RIPE NCC will continue tracking changes.

Newsletter IV-1, 1996-04-03

Vatican, change name from VATICAN CITY STATE (HOLY SEE) to HOLY SEE (VATICAN CITY STATE)

Annual Report 1996, 1996-12-20

No further changes have been made to 3166-IV. The fifth edition will consist of three parts:

3166-1 country codes / DIS published April 96 / IS expected summer|fall 97 "The list of country names remains basically unchanged."

3166-2 country subdivision code / DIS published November 1996

3166-3 Code for formerly used names of countries / DIS expected spring 97

Quote: We are delighted to notice that the acceptance of ISO3166 among users of country codes is growing. However, the use of ISO3166 e.g. in the Internet confronts ISO3166/MA with formerly unknown problems. One among these problems is that more and more "non-country-entities" as e.g. organisations, interest groups or groupings of countries request ISO3166 code elements. The scope of the standard does not allow for allocation of code elements to such "groups".

Newsletter IV-2 1997-07-14

ZAIRE (ZA) changed to CONGO, THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE (CD) change of name, alpha-2 and alpha-3, numeric remains 180

3166-1 is now expected to be published by August/September 1997
