I don't know if we do need channels for geographic locations. E.g. there is a 
channel #mageia-de which - in my opinion is for all people speaking German. I 
don't think separate channels for Germans, Austrians and Swiss would make 
sense.
The reason for having those "sub channels" is, that people can speak in their 
own language...
