Are all the countries going to be changed to the native language?  The DXCC
List has Hawaii.  I think native cultures are great (bring on the beer,
bratwurst and lefse - no lutefisk please).  How about Deutschland and
Kongeriket Norge?

Of course thank you Jim for all the work on the lists.  I just think this is
extra work (and time spent) when you have an ARRL DXCC list to start with.

Two different parts of the database - I corrected the country name to the
official spelling but did not change the WAS database.

The state name will be "Hawai'i" in the next release.
