While I don't agree to publish the coordinates and all that stuff of the
Debian Developers, I think if you want to know (non-DDs) the information
about some DD searching using their login name for example, it would not
hurt anyone to know the Country where he lives. Otherwise he will become
crazy searching in all the countries to find him.

Then, he can think "Oh well, he is from $country. I will drop him an
email to see if we can meet us".
