    One of the issues in the past that has delayed the creation of a more official Spanish list in the U.S. has been the inability to find a "generic" version that will suit the different Spanish dialect groups. How does lcsh-es resolve this difference? Have you had any feed-back from the various regions (Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico) as to how this tool works for them?
