Hi folks
I hate to interrupt this fruitful discussion about the politically correct way of resolving languages issues, but can we get back to the issue at hand, please?
No one is forbidden from using their native language. For getting help quickly, writing in English is probably a good idea. That's all.
Please keep in mind that a basic level of English is a REQUIREMENT for getting a toolserver account, simply for the reason that admins need to be able to communicate with users directly, and users have to understand rules, announcements, etc.
I don't see how a general debate about netiquette in multilingual projects is relevant to the toolserver list. It's an interesting topic, for sure, but this isn't the place. English is the lingua franca on the toolserver. We'll all have to live with that.
Cheers, Daniel
