There are probably more complete sources like the wikipedia page titles which the toolserver page even recommends be consulted. Note that country names are just a tiny piece of what you could call "multilingual map", plenty of other features have different names in different languages and wikipedia has a lot of these already. Especially the pages containing infoboxes are easy to parse and have structured information. (Not saying they should be used but if you're going to make an import, you'd be writing lots of scripts for little data) Cheers _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
