From the latest updates for Guild Wars:
"Added language-specific districts to European servers. There are now different districts for each supported language: English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Players are placed by default into the district that matches their current language preference, but can still travel freely to any available district or to the International District."
Ironically co-incides with the "No" votes against the EU Constitution in France and the Netherlands.
Though I can understand the merits of implementing this system, I can't help but think that it's a bit of a shame. Personally, I was quite enjoying having to interact on equal ground with players whose first language wasn't English.
