Hi John,

The database calls the field "post_code", and the plan is to use
localizations like en-CA to change the label that is displayed.  There
is currently no regexp to do client-side validation, but that is
planned as a localized component as well.  FWIW, the same thing will
work with State/Province.

Is  that what you were looking for?
