Doxa Maps bfc99ff827 library/ keeps the reason and drops the speaker: no comment quotes or cites the Driver
Every reference to the Driver in library/ is reworded: the engineering reason
stays, the speaker and the quote go, and a decision still open reads
"provisional, pending a product decision". Comments only: each changed file
is identical after stripping comments (JavaScript, template and CSS, including
CSS comments inside the style strings shadow-DOM components inject).

Those style-string comments do ship, so several bundles change by exactly
those comment bytes.

Vendored CLDR — codeMappings.json

The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 / alpha-3 / numeric correspondences, used to turn the alpha-3 codes our data speaks into the alpha-2 codes Intl.DisplayNames requires to produce a LOCALIZED country name.

Why vendored rather than a dependency

No npm package is added for this. A dependency would pull CLDR's whole supplemental tree, and it would make the derivation of a shipped data file depend on an install step. The file is 35KB, it is licensed for redistribution, and vendoring it means bun run gen:iso3-to-alpha2 reproduces the derived map OFFLINE — which is the actual point of vendoring, not merely having a copy.

What is derived from it

library/scripts/generate-iso3-to-alpha2.mjs joins this file against the 242 alpha-3 codes in library/data/countries.json and writes library/data/iso3-to-alpha2.json. The generator asserts its own output (242 coverage, injectivity, the one documented exception) and exits non-zero if any of it fails, so a bad refresh cannot land quietly.

DO NOT CONFUSE THIS WITH THE RESEARCH MAP

library/scripts/research/out/iso3-to-iso2.json is a DIFFERENT map with a different job: it is the 176-country research spine that drives the data fetches, and expanding it changes what gets fetched — a product decision about data scope, not a side effect of adding country names. The map derived here is for DISPLAY NAMES ONLY and drives no fetch. CLDR agrees with all 176 values in the research map, which is a useful independent check on it, but the two files are not interchangeable.

Refreshing

Re-download the URL above, update the version, bytes and sha256 in this table, then run the generator and let its assertions grade the result. If CLDR ever disagrees with a value in the research map, the generator says so rather than silently overwriting anything.
