Yes, ISO is "International Standards Organization".
This is a fairly common mistake, even within some rather official references. At least, I've been told so. ISO was never meant to be an English acronym, as it is international by essence, and not especially English. The way for naming ISO varies for each language, and the proper English rendering is "International Organization for Standardisation" (modulo `s' and `z', I'm not sure). It is merely a coincidence that the same letters appear. -- François Pinard http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
