OrganisationRegistrationAgency refers to non-existent categories

[WimVanDerZijden]

I'm running into more consistency issues while importing the codelists into a relational DB.

OrganisationRegistrationAgency contains category elements that do not exist in its category codelist: Country: XM and XI.

    <codelist-item public-database="1">
      <code>XI-IATI</code>
      <name>
        <narrative>International Aid Transparency Initiative Organisation Identifier</narrative>
      </name>
      <description>
        <narrative>XI-IATI is a list of organisation identifiers that is maintained by the IATI Secretariat. Any publisher may apply to the IATI Technical Team for an identifier to be generated.</narrative>

@IATI/bas How do the org-id changes impact this?

[amy-silcock]

XM and XI refer to:

X = No country
I = international organisation
M = multilateral organisation

Does that help @WimVanDerZijden?

This has since been changed, so that the category used for these codes is -. See for example: https://github.com/IATI/IATI-Codelists-NonEmbedded/blob/0d12745eff6e119441b295b851f8a2364b1bcafc/xml/OrganisationRegistrationAgency.xml#L3005-L3023

This seems arguably worse, but it’s directly imported from org-id.guide, so it’s best to raise the issue here: https://github.com/openDataServices/org-ids/issues

I’ve done so here: OpenDataServices/org-ids#212

…so I think it’s fine to close this.

Thanks, closing the issue.
