Sure, but that was just an example. Don't take offense! :)
My answer was not to say which exact name to use but what scheme to
use for local places/areas.
Having read the full thread... using the 3-letters code for languages
is definitely not so obvious for native speaker looking for their
language.
Having both #mageia-fr (country) and #mageia-fre (language) for
instead looks really confusing (or #mageia-de/#mageia-ger).
We're already refering to -fr, -de, -es, etc. as language-based channels.
#mageia-france, -deutschland, -espana, -chile, -argentina (or some
more locally designed community name) will look way more obvious for
what they imply (location-based).
