* [2011-01-04 11:49:43 +0000] Dave Reynolds <dave.e.reynolds@gmail.com> écrit: ] Is VCard that bad? It fits your example below just fine. The only problem I see with the example is that we don't have counties in Scotland, we have districts. In Quebec and Louisiana and other historically catholic places we have parishes. Is Scotland a "state" in the American sense, not really. You could use things like vc:county and vc:state and just say that the naming is bad, I guess. Geonames tackles this problem in a language-neutral way by having several levels of administrative areas but they also construct a hierarchy which might be a little verbose for this use case.
