Description

Name: nl37777			Date: 05/03/2004

ISO 15924 defines 4-letter codes for the representation of 
names of scripts. Such codes are useful, for example, to clarify 
whether Chinese is written with traditional or simplified characters. 
It should be investigated whether support for these script codes can be 
integrated into the locale class and resource bundle lookups without 
breaking compatibility.

Information on ISO 15924 is available at the site of the registration 
authority, http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/.
