English is the lingua franca and everybody in this project regardless of nationality makes an effort to communicate in that language. As an example Mechtilde's English is very good or at least good enough to communicate and pass instructions to someone else as myself who is not a native English speaker. Having presentations in a language other than English will only drive people away from this project. If the idea is to exchange ideas and attract people to this project I'm asking you please to reconsider. Kind regards, Pedro
