It maintains an accurate list of information associated with registered language codes which can be viewed on or downloaded from this website, and processes updates of registered language codes. Notification of pending and adopted updates are also distributed on a regular basis to subscribers and other parties.</p><blockquote><p><b>uniqueId</b></p><p><b>type</b>: oid</p><p><b>value</b>: 1.0.639.3</p><p><b>preferred</b>: true</p></blockquote><blockquote><p><b>uniqueId</b></p><p><b>type</b>: uri</p><p><b>value</b>: http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/iso639-3</p><p><b>preferred</b>: true</p></blockquote></div>
