From what I understand, this mailing list is for the

non-English Wikipedias and not for Wikibooks. Could we move the international discussion of Wikibooks to another list, please?

Thank you, Chuck

We were not discussing wikibook, we were discussing whether wikibook was english restricted or not (ie, if internationals should wait for the project to be have a better stand first, before coming in for a non english book) or whether we should specifically set another site for each language because of the numerous links, rc... issues.

If the current site is common to all languages, you are right that this matter makes no sense here and the subject moved to the appropriate list.

If the site is english only, the textbook mailing list is about the english project only, then there is no place to discuss it really, and this one is probably the best choice to host discussion where non english are involved.

Also, if it is is made clear that the current site is english only (and for many of the reasons given by mav, such as the rc, the common main page etc...), then it should be made clear. Later on, when some non-english people feel like doing a book, they will just have to ask for a new site for this, and set their own rules, obviously inspired from the current one.

If the solution is this one, it should be discussed whether the current english textbook should be moved from http://textbook.wikipedia.org/ to http://en.textbook.wikipedia.org/ .

No ?
