Sorry Claudio,
user in italian are more than you think (personally I can count other
two). For the tessiners there are no problems to use german, but there
are other persons who don't understand deutsch (personally I have some
problems, but I can't read it).
The problem are two:
1.other persons in Italy are interested to Wikimedia CH but don't know
german (the knowledge of german is more usual in Tessin)
2.the use of english can be important to attract other members
The Swiss lies in the center of Europe. I hope that could be not only a
geographical position ;)
Ilario
P.S. Sorry, I am answering late to this e-mail, but I have not read it
before

Nando Manuel and Michael have answered better than I would, but let me
say one thing. I hereby thank all of those who have made the effort to
keep debates and discussions in English, so as to allow all those
interested to participate. I would find it very sad that Wikimedia CH,
which is, if any, one of the most interesting chapter when it comes to
multilingualism, kept Swiss citizens away just because they *don't*
speak German.
Purtroppo, la popolazione svizzero-tedesca - se non mi sbaglio, ma io
in Geografia sono sempre stato negato - è di numero maggiore rispetto
a quella francese, a quella italiana e alla romancia.
Che vanno in quest'ordine di diffusione, per l'appunto: prima i
tedeschi, poi i francesi, poi quelli italiani e infine i romanci.
Di parlanti in lingua italiana, su Wikimedia CH, chi c'è? Ilario, e io
come supporter. E poi ci sei tu, Delphine :D
