</div>I don't know if we do need channels for geographic locations. E.g. there is a<br>
channel #mageia-de which - in my opinion is for all people speaking German. I<br>
don't think separate channels for Germans, Austrians and Swiss would make<br>
sense.<br>
The reason for having those "sub channels" is, that people can speak in their<br>
own language...<br>
