I absolutely agree here, what needs to be considered however is the following:
If we have discussions about formal/legal things (e.g. about the form of the foundation), it gets awfully difficult to translate these terms into English. But we should certainly try to write as much as possible in English from now on. If someone didn't understand one particular previous (german) mail, he shall please post the subject of the mail or, if this doesn't make it clear the url in the wikipedia mail archive, to the list, so that someone can translate this mail into english or give at least an abstract.

AFAIK there are just very few persons that understand english better than german. All is it worth the effort? For me, I don't like the idea that all of my mails in english are being archived.

Well, some people here are speaking Italian (I don't know about french people) and I think, we should try to include them in discussions, as the important discussions are all conducted here and hardly any are conducted on
ch.wikimedia.org
So I think it's a question of fairness to make statements comprehensible for everybody. And, if you don't want to make public you english mails, you can just post in German, and somebody will make a translation/abstract. 2006/1/10, Robin Schwab <[hidden email]>: Hi all together -- An eternity is very, very long, especially towards the end _______________________________________________ Wikimediach-l mailing list [hidden email] http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediach-l |
