[OSM-talk-ie] Ireland within the OSM Community Index

Hello,

While fixing something else, I noticed (as you do) that a number of 
Irish resources in the OSM Community Index seem to be defined using the 
country code "ie" rather than an explicit area.  If you go to 
https://openstreetmap.community/ and zoom in you can see the effect - it 
thinks that (for example) talk-gb covers GB and Northern Ireland, and 
talk-ie covers the only Republic.  I've always assumed that this list is 
the one that covers the island of Ireland, and the same is true for 
other Irish resources too.

I think that the solution is to do something similar to what I did at 
https://github.com/osmlab/osm-community-index/pull/315 - define a 
geojson file for the area and change the Irish resources that should 
cover the whole island to use it (see 
https://github.com/osmlab/osm-community-index/pull/315/files for a 
similar example).

I'm happy to submit the change, or to help someone else submit the 
change, but obviously didn't want to do it before contacting someone 
here first.

Best Regards,

Andy
