I was not aware of this. In fact, I started translating iso-codes just
because some GNOME packages switched to depend on it and dropped their
own previous strings. So, I merged the previous works from GNOME into
"upstream" iso-codes, which, as pointed to by JHBuild moduleset,
appeared to be Debian.

If the one in Debian repository is upstream, I'm happy to work with it.
Otherwise, I'd rather go a step further to its upstream. But from its
debian/copyright, I don't see any other source.

And I just checked the TP page, iso-codes also points to Debian. So, I
assume Debian is already the right place.

(In fact, translation was not an area I initially intended to work.
I just took it because I was frustrated by the quality of GNOME
translations at that time. So, if possible, I would personally like to
limit myself to only current projects I work with. Joining TP may be
my last choice.)

Isn't iso-codes hosted at svn.debian.org, not svn.d-i.alioth.debian.org
where I have the account?
