Good question.  I was originally intending it to be a 2-letter ISO
country code, but the list on the (now defunct) fedora.redhat.com has pretty country
names.  I'm open on this - nothing's using it yet except the public
list.  I had also intended this to be just an override from what GeoIP
reports - e.g. if GeoIP gets it wrong, here's how to fix it locally.

Can I get that from GeoIP already?  If so, I'd prefer to do that.

All the database fields are SQLObject Strings.  Should probably be
Unicode fields instead?  I'll look into that.

Thanks,
