>Description:
I got a FreeBSD 8.0-BETA4 ISO and want to install to a new machine, but I found that FreeBSD 8 using ISO-3166 to call Taiwan "Taiwan, Province of China". It's the politics problem and is NOT good for people living in Taiwan.

Same info can be see at:
 a. FreeBSD PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=68226 
 b. Debian mailing list : http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2004/04/msg00798.html
 c. FreeBSD mirror sites have the name, "Taiwan": http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html

Please just call Taiwan "Taiwan" AS BEFORE. We are the people actually living there, and we do not like to see "Taiwan, Province of China" each time when installing FreeBSD.

Thanks!
