This one's more clear-cut:

Montenegro is slowly moving from .YU while Serbia continues using it.
Central Bank of Montenegro moved from .YU to http://www.cb-cg.org/

Taiwan.

I suppose Google will get in trouble for it.
The problem of Taiwan is a serious political problem, especiall in
China.

You'd better say "countries and areas".

Heh.

Fine... call it "countries and areas". The dropdown on our application
form listed quite a few "areas", and Taiwan happened to be one.

There are lots of things going on in this world of ours. Not all of us
are as well-informed as others. Please just try to be understanding of
that.

Thanks,

Don't worry Greg. Taiwan is a country although people have different
opinions on this issue. Check out the link Aigarius provided:

http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/tw.html
Especially if you are from the United States, this should be convincing
enough.

You were right the first time.

This guy "fromtw" seems to want to confuse the common sense of other
people,
such as Greg...
The very question, whether it's a country or not, should be answered by
U.N.
:-)
Let's leave it behind,
I wonder what this guy will say ten year later.

btw, I come from China!

That's a bit outdated, though. But yeah, seems so. :)

Interesting thought. I'm very busy with trying to handle the flood of
proposals :-) ... but when I get some time, I'll post a breakdown of
the US proposals by state.

To be honest, I don't know how other countries handle their
provinces/states, but I can provide breakdowns for them, too. Should
be pretty easy. Just hang on for a week :-)

Cheers,

It's interesting to see, that Slovenia has the largest percent of
applicants on a million inhabitants. Maybe it's because it's so small.
39 out of slightly less than 2 million. :) Well good luck Slovenians.
We gonna need it :)

For Italy, for example, i think that a region breakout would not make a
lot of sense.
But i think that a North/Centre/South breakout could be quite
interesting.

Besides it will be a lot of work as in many countries there are no
uniform names for the federal states as in the USA. I'm sure some
participants of my state will have written "Niedersachsen", others
"NDS", and others "Nds." and so on... I don't want to be the one having
to evaluate this stuff... :-)
