I am a bit confused about this ISBN stuff.
The RangeMessage.xml file downloadable at
https://www.isbn-international.org/range_file_generation
has:
<Prefix>978-3</Prefix>
<Agency>German language</Agency>
and:
<Prefix>978-90</Prefix>
<Agency>Netherlands</Agency>
[...]
<Prefix>978-94</Prefix>
<Agency>Netherlands</Agency>
So I wonder whether the "3" in nds_NL was possibly not wrong because
nds is a German dialect. Is the country, Netherlands more important here
or the language? I have no idea.
And what about our de_CH, fr_CH, and it_CH locales? The RangeMessage.xml
file does not have anything for Switzerland, it has an entry for “German
language” but not for “French language” and not for “Italian language”
either. There are entries for “Italy” and “France” but are these
relevant for Switzerland?

Yes I agree 3 is Language identifier for German Language
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISBN_identifier_groups
>and:
> <Prefix>978-90</Prefix>

I took the reference from below link

low(lands) saxon language is common in Netherlands and Germany but 3 identifier
Belong to German Language So i think 3 is probably wrong
>And what about our de_CH, fr_CH, and it_CH locales? The RangeMessage.xml
for Switzerland i am unable to find ISBN identifier

Yes, probably using the ISDN of the Netherlands is more appropriate for
nds_NL. But I am not sure.

Yes, that is what I wrote as well.
So I am not sure whether it is worth “fixing” these country_isdn tags
if we are not sure about what should go in there.
Are they even used at all? For what?

I think we can make “fixing” to "replaced Language to Language ISDN"
>Are they even used at all? For what?
Honestly speaking initially we had some marketing requirement to support unsupported locale in glibc
But now I like to play locale
regarding this As we know there is no identifier if countries fall in “language groups". Like (Australia, the United States, Canada, France, Austria, Switzerland...)
Same i observed on books (publisher's place with is country ISBN code or the language of the books it publishes).
SO i think For NL country ISBN is more useful then language identifier
