I'll let PAP reply personnaly, but IMHO, geographical information is indeed to handled with care: various countries do not have the same "rules". I would say that this is really a PTT related matter; it may be a political matter too. For instance, we have in France the concepts of "regions" (province?) which is a way of cutting political responsabilities between different authorities but has very little impact on "technical" aspects such as the ones involved in deploying an X.500 service in the R&D community.
