I'm up for ST (which happily coincides that that of Star Trek 
).
And yes, I say let's make our country codes used for all standarized numbers. One of France's little wrinkles is that it's two-number departmental codes get recycled in various contexts. For instance, "75" means Paris, so all cars registered in Paris terminate in 75, it's postal code is 75000, etc. 57 is in Alsace-Lorraine (Haut-Rhin department, maybe?), 81 includes Toulon (Bouches-du-Rh?ne department, perhaps?), etc.
I also nominate Yuunli as our Regional Postmaster General. On one of his other sites, he's done a study of postal codes:

I would be happy to serve as Rolf's deputy in this matter. Vexillology, philately, deltiology, I'm into most hobbies ending in "y"!
