Comment(by arma):

 Yes, the latter.

 I'm not sure how we're going to decide what's in which category, but we
 can sort that out later.

 But it means that we need a way to tell bridgedb which bridges count /
 don't count for a given country.

 Also, just as important here is the fact that we know what language to use
 when answering. We could also take this opportunity to add extra
 information to e.g. people in China.

 One problem that will come up after a while is that languages !=
 countries. So if we have a
 bridges+es@xxxx address, what country do we answer for? I think the answer
 is that we should
 think of these as country codes, not languages. That said, it's fine to
 have lots of synonyms, like both zh and cn.
