See this idea proposed on the loco-contacts mailing list. How should we respond?

Let's discuss in the IRC meeting tomorrow.

Hi everyone,

Right now in our IRC clients when you launch them we autojoin them to
#ubuntu. This makes the channel unwieldy, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community/+bug/392799

I was wondering how people felt about having the users join
#ubuntu-COUNTRYCODE instead, so depending on your locale it would join
you to that channel instead of #ubuntu. How do you feel about this,
would it be useful for LoCo's or do you feel like you would get
"spammed" by random users?
