[API-users] ISO country code

[David.Martin at csiro.au]

Hello,

This query was previously working:

http://api.gbif.org/v0.9/dataset/search?publishingCountry=SPAIN&type=OCCURRENCE&limit=1

But now returns:

"Value SPAIN invalid for filter parameter PUBLISHING_COUNTRY"

We've switched to using the 2 letter iso country code (which works fine):

http://api.gbif.org/v0.9/dataset/search?publishingCountry=ES&type=OCCURRENCE&limit=1<http://api.gbif.org/v0.9/dataset/search?publishingCountry=SPAIN&type=OCCURRENCE&limit=1>

but just thought I'd flag this in case it wasn't an intended change. This JIRA issue [1] suggests that the intention is to support both.

Cheers
