I have no objection to people having discussions on this list in any
language, and I'm not sure why you would. Unfortunately, it seems like
for most languages that would be a bit of an exercise in futility as
all active members are fluent in English, but only a fraction of us
are fluent in any other given language. If someone makes a post in
Serbian expecting an active and vibrant discussion here, they'll
probably be disappointed as we don't have a whole lot of Serbian
speakers here, and if just one is not interested in that particular
topic, it'll die pretty quickly.
