I wonder beyond just city names, what extra data is needed to get an implementation running. What map data is required, how about GPS data? What is the geographic taxonomy... suburbs, zones? I'd like to get something running, but want to have the code as comprehensively implemented as possible.
I've sent some feedback to EB, but will post here especially with it being now open-source:

There should be a page of installations for various countries it has been setup. This may prevent duplicated efforts for various countries, and better promote existing implementations.
Also, non-programmers would be interested ie potential webmasters or administrators. Even a hosted version could be a good business model. As such, check out http://nationbuilder.com when it's released stemming from http://whitehouse2.org
And multi-language? What if I'd like to do something for a single country in two language versions.

Also, only Business Reviews, Lost and Found, and Real Estate listings, when clicked bring up actual data. Otherwise, the user sees an information measurement screen before reaching any data. This intermediary step detracts from the site - why can't there be an aggregation of all information from that category in an added feed column that's also available in RSS. This would be especially useful for cities just beginning and when there's not a lot of data, or, when all subcategories are of interest to a user. For example, an rss feed of all police calls for an entire city would be of interest to reporters.
