I have a table that converts the region in maxmind's geoip db to a proper region name - maxmind's works fine for the US, but outside that, it's just codes (mine is B8). The nearby search replaces these codes (ie FR.B8 for me) with the real name (ie Provence-Alpes-C'ôte-d'Azur)
Now that the code lookup/replace works on the nearby stuff, I'll be swapping them out in the geoip lookups next.
And fixing this cyrillic/latin swap that happened. That's the problem with these databases - if you aren't in that locality, it's a bitch to try and squash bugs cos you never see them!
