@tobiduer You don't really want us to google every state of every country there is, just to have this dropdown, do you? Sometimes there are requirements worth discussing with the client... I'm highly against this one.

@bjrne There must be a list with this information

The gender dropdown is a duplicate of https://github.com/hpi-swt2/workshop-portal/issues/140.

@bjrne: This was an explicit customer requirement and not our own idea. Therefore we should not ignore there wishes. Probably there is a gem or other third-party-library out there that does exactly this, because our customers are not the first customers aiming for this kind of functionality. ;) I forgot adding the low priority label. Maybe this clarifies the importance of this US and therefore defers this discussion to a later point.

@hpi-swt2/team-d-16 the gender dropdown has been implemented in https://github.com/hpi-swt2/workshop-portal/pull/184.

The Bundesland is only needed for inside Germany. Therefore if as a country "Germany" is selected the dropdown could be visible otherwise the user is free to enter whatever she likes
