Getting this tied to an actual country object could make GeoIP integration of some sort be useful later down the road.

That was my intention.

Haven't seen any progress on this. :)

Hmm, did you expect me to do something? I am quite busy atm; maybe I got some time at the week end.

I just expect other people to chip in when they have motivation to fix it, I can't do everything either.

If there is something in here that is wrong, let's just write some SQL to fix it up:

UPDATE mirrors_mirror SET country = 'Best Country Ever!' WHERE country = 'Germany';

If you can put together mappings like this to get the names adjusted to whatever that ISO standard # was, we'll be in business.

I guess the most popular will be UPDATE mirrors_mirror SET country = 'United Kindgom' WHERE country = 'Great Britain'; but my question is: since I don't see a dropdown list for selecting a country but have to enter it manually each time I add a new mirror will I have to rewrite the Country fileld for existing mirrors after each country name change? -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

Are you missing what this does? The SQL is to rewrite all existing mirrors using those country names, it has nothing to do with new ones.

That's exactly what my intention was. I am missing your point. Existing ones would just have to be entered correctly. Or do you want to change the field in the admin GUI from text input to selectbox? -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

No, *new* ones would have to be entered correctly after we fix the *existing* ones.

Looks like we were talking about the same thing. :)

We can make it a select box if you want Nah, no need for that, I can just enter them properly.
