    They are not in the downloadable plain text version...
    The HTML version is bogous:

    I see:
    - "Limb;401;Limbu" and "Linb;401;Linear B": (numeric code conflict, incorrect
    ID)
    - "Tale;353;Tai Le" is missing in the plain text version

    OK "Cprt;403;Cypriot" is there....

    Please recheck the code list in a Excel sheet (according to the ISO-15924
    meeting minutes), reformat it and regenerate coherent tables...

    You could do that with a corrected CSV file that is used as a reference, and
    from which you will generate the HTML versions...

    Thanks.
