Originally created by @tomlutzenberger on GitHub (Feb 24, 2017).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/lipis/flag-icons/issues/348

There a lot requests for flags that are not included in ISO standards or not acknowledged/legit states or countries. My suggestion is to create a FAQ section for this, either as section in the README or in a separate file.
I would list frequently requested flags and the reason, why they won't be included in the future.
Additionally, there should be a reference on the FAQ in the issue template.

Another Idea would be creating two collections. One strict collection, which only includes flags from acknowledged states and a second one with all other types of flags.
This way everyone can get the flags they want for their project.

Based on @Findus23 idea I'd suggest to move all non-official flags to a separate project to keep this on small and clean. Most people will only need the official flags.

@tomlutzenberger I'd like to add some non-official (ISO) flags, if you'd accept them, otherwise I guess I'll just maintain a fork for my project-specific flags.

Can you perhaps ping me when this separate project is done?
