Of course this is a good idea, but there will also be drivers (like Date_Holidays_Driver_UNO) for things that have no such code. So if I use country-codes for some drivers and real-life names for others the whole thing of naming drivers would be inconsistently.
Hummm.. I think everybody could live with that ;-) Since country names have been standardized, why not using them for that purpose even at the cost of name inconsistency with exceptions. It's easier to extract a country code from a Locale and use it as is, then having to add an extra mapping to driver name... I guess the non-working holidays have to be handled by a customer driver, right? -Philippe
