But not the affected user base if you remove useful apps like geography learning apps because they show Taiwan as a country complete with flag.

But what about the many distros which do not do these changes? Kubuntu ships the Taiwanese flag, see: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/all/kdebase-runtime-data-common/filelist Yet they even have a .org.cn site: http://www.kubuntu.org.cn/ which appears to be hosted inside mainland China. > Proliferation of spins and maintenance for specific geographies is > a waste of space and effort, if it can be avoided.

That's how it works for GNOME, but KDE *needs* localized spins anyway as there's no way to fit all the huge kde-l10n-* packages on a CD. The KDE spin does *NOT* include any translations.
