Language is not the only issue. We also want to pay closer attention to
local payment methods, local fraud monitoring, credit card and other
payment processing rates, etc... And that stuff is all country-based.

But the main reason to do it by country is that it's the best way to ensure
that people only see banners once a year. Most -- or at least many --
readers use several projects regularly. So if we did it by language, a lot
of people would see two months of banners at different times of the year.
