A draft of 15897 is available at http://www.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg20/docs/n712.pdf
Locales can be found at http://www.dkuug.dk/i18n/WG15-collection/locales
These are POSIX ISO/IEC 9945-2 locales.
Some other locales in ISO DTR 14652 format can be found in the GNU glibc distribution,
and possibly also form the li18nux site. (I have not yet looked at these).
The question in the first hand was only the naming scheme, which is elaborated
in 15897.
Kind regards
