Summary: Add Sardinian language codes into iso_639.pot 
Part: ISO 639


Initial Comment:
Please, if is possible, add into iso_639.pot file the following patch, to add the Sardinian ISO 639-3 codes.

It's need because I'm developing a spell checker for these language codes, and this codes are not recognized by programs (like gedit, kate, etc.) that use this file.

Attached files:

* the patch

Message:
If gedit uses iso_639.xml, then it is using ISO 639-2, not ISO-639-3. ISO 639-2 has only one entry for Sardinian (sc). We cannot change the standard  and thus we can't add antyhing to the ISO 639-2 list.

As ISO 639-3 has all variants, I suggest you report a bug against gedit so that it uses iso_639_3.xml

Message:
Yes, but they aren't into iso_639.xml. This is the file used by gedit to display language names.

Maybe is a gedit (or GNOME) bug, but I saw that many iso 639-3 codes are into this file, so it could be a work around.

Message:
But all Sardinian variants *are* already listed in iso_639_3.xml and thus in the POT file. What makes you think they aren't?

What version of iso-codes are you using?
