Yes, I would be in for that. Do you already have an action in mind? We
could rename the package, but what name should we choose? Just a
generic one like "iso-codes", so that users can think of the contents
by reading the name? Or should we come up with a fantasy name which
does not resemble the iso-codes name?

Regards,
Tobias
