As a point of information, APNIC uses cc "ZZ" specifically for unallocated and "stub" (outward transferred) records.

Thank you for pointing this out. It is an interesting point of curiosity, but as I am sure you realize, this particular small factoid neither rebutts nor dininishes my basic thesis, which is (a) that all resource and organization records should have a country: and (b) that the values in these country: fields should obey either some generally accepted and recognized standard (e.g. ISO 3166) or at the very least some well defined and well documented convention.
