@Nhomar: +1 for everything you said.

I would add a few remarks:
- I don't think relying dynamically on an external source (eg. the webservice from geonames) is good, because we then depend on something we don't control. The day it stops or disappears or if it's down, the users are stuck and we have to do everything all over again. It doesn't prevent to copy from it though. I think that if the structure of that 1 module is clean, it will be very easy for any other contributor to add his own country/states/... to it by copying existing ones.
- It would be sane to wait for a "go ahead" from OpenERP R&D to make sure it fits in the big picture. But nobody should care about whether it will be merged considering it will be available through the Apps platform, and if it is good and used, it will be visible and maintained (thanks to the new Apps platform).
