I believe it is. When someone says they are from the 'North East' they know
you mean Newcastle, Sunderland etc. and not North East Scotland. However,
that could obviously be different if they said it in Edinburgh.
That said, shouldn't the .en. bit still stand?
lugnet.loc.uk.en.ne
On the proposal as a whole, I agree with the English groups and their
defined regions, but why should Scotland and Wales not be further
sub-divided?
For example
lugnet.loc.uk.sc.hi Highlands
lugnet.loc.uk.sc.bo Borders
and so on (help from a Scot requred here, please!)
I disagree strongly with the proposal to add the 'empire' countries in the
same hierachy. Either keep them as they are or use some other sub-division:
lugnet.loc.uk.<xx>.whatever. so they stand apart.
Thus we have,
lugnet.loc.uk
lugnet.loc.uk.en
lugnet.loc.uk.en. ... (english subdivisions)
lugnet.loc.uk.sc
lugnet.loc.uk.sc. ... (scottish subdivisions)
(same for N.I. and Wales)
lugnet.loc.uk.<xx>.<country> (for the 'emipre')
