With the help of Paul, I have managed to make it build with the name
"Persian" - Thanks Paul!

However, there are some problems with the Persian version of the list
which seems to be because the language is read from right to left - the
contacts are in the format "name <email>", and this causes the final
">" on each <li> to be a "<" and come first on the line instead.

It's a bit hard to describe, see the page
https://www.debian.org/devel/website/translation_coordinators.fa.html
and the problem should be obvious.

I have no idea on how to fix this, anybody with experience on HTML with
languages read right-to-left have a clue?
