You can often get a sense of where someone is by noting the timezone of
the Date: header in their messages.  That seems to get localized
correctly even by a lot of the big services like gmail.

FWIW, this project has always been pretty diversified geographically;
we've had major contributors in Russia, Japan, and Australia for as far
back as I can remember, not just Europe and the Americas.  I think there
are more people now, but I'm not convinced that the distribution has
changed much.
