I think Paul has hit on something important here. A lot of software, including FOSS, likes to default to US Letter size, a size which is alien to people outside of North America.
And considering Ubuntu is from South Africa (not the USA, like Microsoft), we really need to have any posters, etc., using the international standard paper sizes like A4, A3, A2, etc. With some distros (I forget which), despite selecting my location as London, UK, when installing, I still find that some software defaults to things like US Letter size and inches, instead of A4 and millimetres (including Firefox 2 on Linux, but not in Windows; Firefox 3 works with the proper UK settings).
