You can use lazy consensus if unsure, use [lazy] in the subject line and say something like "I'll do that unless someone opposes within 24 hours". > ...One question still: What about different languages: Japanese/Chinese/French > etc. how does a integration of people with other language-skills usually > work?... If people can communicate in english that can happen here (at least initially), otherwise I agree that you'd need separate lists. Note that the http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/ probably has similar issues w.r.t translation, you might want to talk to them. -Bertrand
