That's right.
I remember him telling that he agreed to the change. Did he change his mind?
No, I agree that it is possible that we could improve the international flavor of the homepage of www.
However, I *do* think it is a pretty minor issue, because RIGHT THERE AT THE TOP of www are the links to other languages. I have not seen any concrete proposals that are actually much improvement to that.
It seems very unlikely that anyone could visit our homepage and not know that we are international. We can make the homepage useless for everyone, and language neutral, by removing the rest of the links on the homepage, and forcing all that stuff to appear only on en.wikipedia.org. But why?
I fail to see why anyone should be offended by our current treatment.
But, if there is an improvement to be made, I'm all for it.
