<br>
Support provided by the loco to people of the same region/language.<br>
<br>
In the UK we provide support to people. In #ubuntu-uk if they ask for it. Often people find #ubuntu too busy or hard to follow.<br>
<br>
We get a fair number of people turn up from outside the UK for whom English is a second language. If someone can help they will but I'd nobody is around or we can't fix the issue we refer people to the "official" support channels.<br>
