Support for 3 letter country codes?

Hello,

Thanks for this module. Would you have any interest in also supporting the "ISO 3166-1 alpha 3" codes? (The three letter country codes)?

I find multiple modules that can deal with the 2 letter codes, but currently no modules on npmjs.org that appear to be able to convert the 3 letter codes.

Could be, let me think about it. It mostly comes down to finding a nice and open data source for those codes.

Another project on Github added support for 3 letter country codes in the last 3 hours.

They have a "codes.csv" file that converts between 2 and 3 letter codes:

It might also be of interest to mention this project in a "See Also" section, as it appears somewhat related.

Thanks for the interest in this module and sorry for a such late reply.
The idea for this module was to provide access to the data from http://data.okfn.org/data/core/country-list, and I've decided to keep it that way.

So sorry, no support for other codes.
