Change Taiwan, Province of China to Taiwan, Republic of China
This is a highly political issue.
It seems to me that this is exactly why FreeBSD should stick with whatever
ISO says instead of taking an independent position. I personally happen to
agree that calling Taiwan a province of China is an exercise in ignoring
reality -- but I don't think it's a good idea for us to impose our personal
political beliefs on the project.
You wouldn't like the US to be
referred to as "United States, province of Britain.".
If that's what ISO decided to call it, then that's what I'd expect a file
named "iso3166" to call it.
