[DCRM-L] Correct "Ctry" question

[Elizabeth Robinson]

I agree with Deborah and Margaret on "fr". I think it
is going too far to do an 044 (somewhat of an expanded
008/15-17) since it seems to be limited to
publishing/production (versus distribution), but
Richard's idea of giving two 752s seems like a good
one. I would do that too.
