The link at the top of iso3166.tab
(http://www.iso.org/iso/home/standards/country_codes/updates_on_iso_3166.htm)
is a 404 now too. It probably should be
https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search or something.
That also suggests, that "GB" should really be "United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Northern Ireland (the)" as per
https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:code:3166:GB — but that's a bit long :-)
I do agree that this patch should be applied.
cheers,
Derick
