Here is what I have had:
http://www.iso.ch/
Did they have something else?

Another piece of trivia that I discussed here before...
ISO does not stand for "International Standards Organization" because they
are "The International Organiztion for Standard[s|ization]"

"ISO" should really be "Iso" (as a proper noun) or "iso" (as a prefix)
meaning, "equal". Of course, everyone can make claims to be authoritative
on how their names should be written.

"The artist formally known as prince" uses a symbolic name...

I guess, "Iso" can call themselves "ISO" if I can call myself "MIKE".

-MIKE (not yelling, just being sarcastic in a fun way. ;-)
