<PRE>><i> So, I would suggest this for #mageia-{suffix}:
</I>><i> 0. 2-letters ISO code for _language_ (as we do today, already);
</I>><i> 1. 2-letters code _may_ be used for location/country coding;
</I>><i> 2. in case of conflict between rules 0 and 1, ask IRC management team
</I>><i> - and rule 0 is most likely to apply anyway;
</I>><i> 3. so full location/country name is encouraged for location coding;
</I>><i>
</I>><i> In this case, #mageia-uk would go for Ukrainian language and
</I>><i> #mageia-unitedkingdom for the United Kingdom; given the context, both
</I>><i> would encouraged to put a welcome message on their channel in the
</I>><i> coming days to help people re-route themselves in case needed.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> That would also mean, for instance, that #mageia-br would go for
</I>><i> Breton - Celtic language, not for Brasil that would need
</I>><i> #mageia-brasil instead.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> That drives me to pre-announce that we will have some sort of a "IRC
</I>><i> Council" of admins/moderators/mediators of IRC channels, to
</I>><i> collaborate with Forum and Mailing-lists peers to manage
</I>><i> technical/conflict/discussion topics/issues and escalates to the
</I>><i> community council in case of need (more on the whole organisation
</I>><i> soon).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Cheers,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Romain
</I>><i>
</I>
I am just curious to know, if you are mailing a package to the Ukraine
from France, would you use the UK code? I am not sure what system is
used in Europe.
In North America, UK would be sent to the United Kingdom.
