    I need FIPS codes because they’re still used in MaxMind’s GeoIP database. This worked perfectly with Natural Earth.

    Since the standard has been retired I agree that it makes sense to drop it. On the other hand, including legacy identifiers for backward compatibility seems to be worth the few kB.

    Do you have a change-set of the regions that changed from 1.4.0 to 2.0.0 (e.g. New Zealand)? I need to go through them and do the mapping myself. I can probably use the FIPS codes from 1.4 and add the missing ones.
