Oops, too many ISO standards to keep track of!
As John Klensin pointed out to me, ISO-3166 is not the right standard.
So let's make that ISO-639 see, for example, http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/ht
tp/related/iso639.txt
ISO-3166 is _country_ codes, see
http://userpage.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html
which no doubt would be used elsewhere in this standard.

FWIW, that would be es (Spanish) and en (English), which is not to be
confused with country codes GB (United Kingdom) or ES (Spain).
