This "distinction" is one of the big issues in Spain since ages, you will find a wide range of opinions everywhere, Extremadura and Barcelona included. Hint: you don't want to get involved in this discussion. Some would write Barcelona (Spain), some Barcelona (Catalonia). Because the GUADEC is no related to regional politics at all, we recommend to put both or none. But the fact of putting "(Catalonia - Spain)" it's not a distinction, it's an approximation. It's the way to say that Barcelona it's in Catalonia and Catalonia is in Spain. This is 100% institutional considering how Spain is legally constituted. I mean, it's not like saying Free Kurdistan or something. I understand all this doesn't make sense for a German - or even less sense for a US citizen. But believe me, here it does make sense. Ask Jordi Mallach, ask the GNOME Hispano people. You may get different answers but all them will agree that it makes sense to put "Barcelona (Catalonia - Spain) or simply Barcelona if the priority is not get mixed with the political debate. Sorry for all this. Again, this is the recommendation of the Barcelona team. Don't kill the messenger. :) Quim -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
