  48     (description
  49      "This package provides lists of various ISO standards (e.g. country,
  50 language, language scripts, and currency names) in one place, rather
  51 than repeated in many programs throughout the system.
  52
  53 Currently there are lists of languages and countries embedded in
  54 several different programs, which leads to dozens of lists of
  55 200 languages, translated into more than 30 languages... not
  56 very efficient.
  57
  58 With this package, we create a single \"gettext domain\" for every
  59 supported ISO standard which contains the translations of
  60 that domain.  It is easy for a programmer to re-use those
  61 translations instead of maintaining their own translation
  62 infrastructure.  Moreover, the programmer does not need to follow
  63 changes in the ISO standard and will not work with outdated
  64 information.")
