Reviewing actual usage shows that a number of the lists aren't really
categorized correctly under these categories.  In particular, the
"Regional" lists are actually more "per-language" lists than they are
"Regional" in nature.  To address that, we're planning to create a new
category called "Per Language Lists" (better name suggestions are
welcome) and move a number of the currently "regional" lists to that
category.

Individuals who are familiar with the various non-English lists are
solicited to please help us distinguish the lists that are truely
"Regional" from those which are really "Per-Language".  My understanding
is that, at least, the following lists are really per-language and not
really regional:

pgsql-es-ayuda
pgsql-es-fomento
pgsql-es-trabajos
pgsql-fr-generale
pgsql-de-allgemein

I think renaming the "Regional" category to "Language" is a fine
solution to the most of the problem.

Great, glad we agree there.

AFAICT the only non-dead PUG lists are:

pdxpug
seapug
ecpug
lapug

I know that pdxpug has basically said that they use Meetup and really
don't see value in cross-posting to that list.  Seapug appears to just
be -announce repostings, and lapug also has a meetup account that they
use.  Moveing ecpug to a Regional list is fine, of course.
