One problem space that I think either of these solutions might address
is the issue of having static "country code" and "state code" tables
reproduced on many databases throughout an installation. Would anyone
recommend either of these solutions, or another one, for addressing this
issue?
I'm not looking forward to the day when a new country appears,
and I have to find all the places I have country code lists to add it.
