Yes - Christian you make a very strong and valid point here, it does
break the current pattern, the current is language based not country
code.

It still breaks down, to me, along language. A French speaking speaking
Canadian or a Portuguese speaking  Ghanaian, is likely to find the NL
website for the respective language. 

Alright - I've just deleted long paragraphs about language, marketing
and community building twice (the clock say I need to move on) so I'll
stop with just this

- on this point of language based sub-domains, I am in full agreement
the site is too deeply built on that foundation to break it, IMO.

Thanks
