I'm currently in the process of setting up a UK version of the SandersForPresident Reddit page for Jeremy Corbyn and would like very much to use you site as it's events map. Jeremy is our version of Bernie and he has just as much enthusiasm and as many supporters wanting to set up rallies, phone banks etc. However when I tested your site earlier I found it's currently only set up for US addresses.

Is there any way it could be set up to accept UK addresses too?

The guts of this would be here, two US specific fields: https://github.com/bahoo/progressive-events/blob/master/core/models.py#L25-L26

but making that play intelligently and friendly with the Add Event would need some consideration and testing: http://www.progressiveevents.org/add

Also lurking here, probably:

• Time Zone considerations
• Maybe auto-centering the map based on user's current location? (Seattle == me being selfish, but we could get pretty close using their IP)

May be useful: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/topics/i18n/
