Seems like this is all wrapped up at last. Ideally we could a model of
both local teams and language teams being able to use a 2 character
country/language code. It might be possible to have for example
#mageia-es to cater for Spanish speaking support and local Spanish
events if that is the will of the channel owner, or one or the other. I
reckon that we should take this on a case-by-case basis by listening to
the teams involved in how they would like their #mageia-* namespace to
be used.
With regions such as Wales (Cymru in Welsh) it may be a better option to
use three letter codes such as -cym for Cymru, -sco for Scotland or -bzh
for Brittany. Or we could have #mageia-fr-br to represent that Brittany
is part of France and #mageia-uk-cy to show that Cymru/Wales is part of
the UK. We should try to stick to the ISO standards are closely as
possible but there may be times where two groups, i.e. a country code
and a language code may conflict and it best to serve those on a first
come first served basis in my humble opinion.
Anyone else got any differing ideas for the matter at hand?
