What do you mean NO?
I respect "Wikipedia", but not you.

I respect you, and I ask you to do the same for me.  I am trying to be helpful here and bring all parties together for the best interest of the Myanmar language community.
 
Thanks. I do if you have unbias and objective thinking.
 


What I mean by "no" is that it is not appropriate for you to run a website named "myanmarwikipedia.org" without permission or assistance from us.
 
I am following Wikipedia ways. Our group will be happy if we get assistance from you.
 


It is not for profit and also mean content for my.wikipedia.org <http://my.wikipedia.org>.
However the donation will NOT go to my.wikipedia.org <http://my.wikipedia.org>.
We will NOT donate the domain name, instead I request the Foundation to lease temporary domain name of zawgyi.wikipedia.org <http://zawgyi.wikipedia.org>. This will assue that the Foundation has some control of our work.

It is entirely possible that something like that will be done, but first we need to continue our respectful conversation so that, working together, we are all confident that we have decided on a good path forward.
 
That is usual way of talk at first. Thanks.
 


It is rather appreance that myanmarwikipedia.org <http://myanmarwikipedia.org> is to seperate Myanmar community, for those who love Zawgyi and for those who love Unicode 5.1.

I oppose any separation of the Myanmar community on the basis of loving a particular font! 
 
Who is the first seperating?
 
 We are speaking of issues of sharing knowledge with all people - and it is important that the community be kept strong and working together in harmony for that goal.  There is a complex situation with the fonts, yes.  But the solution is not to split into two websites, the solution is to find a way to support everyone together.
 
I hope you do find a way.
 


Could you clearify that Mr Eversion's proposed translation task is ZERO COST or not?

There will be no cost to you or the community.  Beyond that, I don't know what you are asking.
 
Nice words.
