Thank you for your mention on us, Gerald. Would you also be so kind to
let me know where I can find the beginning of this thread? Brianna
quoted your mail but since her mail header contents no In-Reply-To:
then I feel I can't figure precisely the entire discussion of yours.
Related URLs would be helpful as additional information.

And yes, since we are not mere Translation subcommittee, but Promotion
& Translation subcommittee, caring for promotion projects smaller than
our flagship Wikipedia, it is right for you to be recalled the
potential helper working on Foundation activity layer - not as
"meta-subcommittee". Though our contact page is on meta, it is crystal
clear we aren't such - not people caring for and involved into only
meta issues, but attempting both to keep and enhance
multilingalization of our project and help smaller project to work out
smoothly.
