Yes, we do have an 'IP Map' capability to take the originating IP
address of the email and try to map its location. While not always
accurate, it does give a general sense of where the emails are coming
from, so helps in understanding the geographical reach.
We mapped emails for messages to the pgsql-general list a while ago.
The resulting map is at:

We were waiting for someone from the pgsql-www team to tell us if
they want to embed such maps on the Postgtresql.org web site.

Can we have both?
Well but who has a GPS-Header in his/her MUA?
Well, I know someone did such a map by using the coordinates of
their IP
address. It wasn't perfect, but it was close for lots of people.
Yeah I think that's how we would do it. Could probably also do the
same
for the website traffic too. Point being that we need to get the
infrastructure in place to do the mapping and then we should be
able to
do several different schemes for getting input.
