Thanks Jacques,
I'll be more diligent when creating geo issues from now on.

There are cities names the same in France, but the postal code is the

We can keep Israel geo data, can't hurt...
I'd have to check geoIds againts ISO codes, but I guess if anybody
complains then it must be OK (at least for now)

Also, with regards to my question about the France geoIds not
matching those of ISO codes, the same incompatibility exists for USA
state geoIds so it isn't really an issue either unless the community
agrees they should match which entails more geo work.

I suppose populating the state/province list isn't really necessary
so long as the country doesn't have cities that are named the same
such as in USA. Therefore if France doesn't have more than one city
named the same then my question can be disregarded. If the same
rule applies to the other geo JIRA issues I created, which I assume
is the case for Israel being so small, then they may potentially
need to be reverted. The service doesn't require the state/province
field so leaving the list empty doesn't cause any problems.

When choosing France as the country for creating contact info for a
party, the state/province field is not populated. One reason for
this is that the FRA record in the CountryAddressFormat entity does
not have the geoAssocTypeId set. However, even when the
geoAssocTypeId is set to REGIONS, the list is still not populated
because the the corresponding Geo records geoTypeId is not set to
one of STATE, PROVINCE, COUNTY, or MUNICIPALITY as required by
getAssociatedStateList service. Instead they are set to REGION and
COUNTY_CITY.
This http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:FR explains France has
22 metro regions and 96 metro depts within the regions. Can
someone advise how to correctly populate the state/province list?
Should only the 22 regions be listed or should the 96 depts be
listed with the region also indicated? Also should the REGION and
COUNTRY_CITY geoTypeIds be added to the getAssociatedStateList
service as compatible types?
Also, the geoId of the France regions appear to be incorrect
according to the wikipedia article above. For example, the GeoId
of Alsace is FR-ALS however it is indicated as FR-A in the
wikipedia article. Should these also be correct for consistency
with ISO?
