Reread yourself, you are asking others to stop performing some unrelated work in Wikimedia. Even if this is a formof protest, this is not the correct form when the protest does not come with a place for discussions. So yes you call is felt like an order, and even more because you have ad iertized it in multiple places with the same call to boycott in reactio nto somthing that you have expereienced yourself (and only you).
For others that could read this message, look at the RfC linked in News from the Home page of MetaWiki. This is enough. and this is is the papropriate place to discuss this issue (and you can't say you ignore it, given that you have posted there too). We don't need to read that in multiple mailing lists
And most translators are NOT concerned by the subject of your boycott (meaning that it is simply inappropriate).
Agreed.
Let's not drag political arguments into this mailing list. If you have a specific comment about this translation text, a question about it, or the need to coordinate a broader translation project, feel free to share it. Otherwise, the traffic on this list should be kept pretty low and content should be apolitical.
