+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; a &#233;crit :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; SO, what we need to know is: are we going by geography
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; (two-letter country codes as per the ISO list here:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; <A HREF="http://www.iso.org/iso/english_country_names_and_code_elements">http://www.iso.org/iso/english_country_names_and_code_elements</A>).
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; or by language (such as en-gb)?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Depends what people join channels for: language or local
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; acquaintances? [...]
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; In our case it was a local support channel for UK users, so it's
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; geographic - could we support a mixture, so use the iso code for
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; language if the channel is for language, but where there's a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; conflict fall back on the long form (such as en-gb)?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> After reading Marc's suggestion, maybe:
+</I>&gt;<i> - keeping the 2 letters ISO format for locales (ie #mageia-fr
+</I>&gt;<i> for French, #mageia-en-gb for British English etc.),
+</I>&gt;<i> - using full country name for local-based channels (ie
+</I>&gt;<i> #mageia-france, #mageia-greatbritain)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> could a solution? (although it makes for longer channel names).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Using two letters code for country and 3 letters code for
+</I>&gt;<i> languages would be more confusing.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Romain.
+</I>
+Please read my other posts - #mageia-unitedkingdom would be OK,
+#mageia-greatbritain would NOT!
