Hi Thorsten,
As already mentioned in this thread. We have to differentiate between
the language code and the country code. Both are standardized by the
ISO. The German language code for example is 'de' where the country
code ... hmmm if I look at the ISO 3166 the country code is DE too.
But nevertheless, what I want to say is, that an IRC Channel per
language is usefull but a channel per country is useless (IMHO). So
we should focus at the language code, if there is a need of a
standardization.
Um... no, that's exactly the opposite of why the question was asked.
The UK (or GB) channel was opened *specifically* for local
support/action/events, not primarily for language support, so we *do*
want a locality/geographically-based channel identifier.
Some other folks want language-based channel identifiers.
Seems like we need a scheme that would incorporate both types of
identifier, and maybe some explanation of the identifiers on the
blog/chanserv/whatever.
Also we've noted that we don't have a structure for naming ops and
granting privileges and so forth - need to think about that before the
trolls turn up.
Cheers,

Why not use en-UK ?
That way no confusion/conflict for anyone, and your channel is grouped
with other english-speaking channels.
And it matches localisation identification format already used.
Just a suggestion ...
