Hello, I beg to differ with Pavel here. In my opinion, we will have an EN Native-Lang project soon or later, but for this we need to appease the tensions at first, and then clearly define the missions of such a project. Despite the tensions that have arisen inside the Marketing project, the questions left by them are still unanswered. One of them, that is very important, and that goes beyond the adverse feelings like "does xyz feel appreciated and represented in the marketing project?" is the real representation of the English speaking community, as a community, as a culture, as a set of local interests. This question can be today answered in two ways: -an EN native-lang project (not created out of frustration or in a desire of going somewhere else) -regional groups of users.
Regional users groups are an interesting option that is left for further investigation. EN native-lang project is a more coherent option, more powerful at the same time, but some people may object to it (I don't). This is why, Sophie, I answered -1 at that time, but as I said, it's not a definitive no. And I'm confident that the people who will start an EN Native-Lang project understand my position and that they will do a great job in the NLC. Regards, Charles.
