I do agree with Kurt: Communities are concerned with people, Regio
with things related to the ground. It make sense to map Regio's:
it's a territory, we may touch it, sense it. This is not the case
with communities.

<br>
If some people want to map them, I think we should use different
key than those existing now; they are not appropriated and we are,
maybe, an unique case in the world.

That's what I was saying in the first message:<br>

<blockquote type="cite">"Communities are people and people cannot be
shown on a map, only the territories where they live."<br>

It's like a monks community: you map the convent, don't you, not the
community.<br>
The convent is the "area" where the monks live.<br>
And if two communities live in the same convent, will you ever say
that the convent is inside two communities?<br>
Should you want to map the two communities and their inside, you
would have to map every monk and include them in the correct
relation. Sounds crazy? Not my invention ;-)<br>
<br>
Likely, Brussels is not in two communities as some persons put it.<br>
Members of two different communities live in Brussels, that's all<br>
And that can only be shown by the name ("bilingual", just as
"convent of Y and Y")<br>
