posting content in one language and translating it to english - waste of
bandwidth of all people.

when i joined ilugc a decade ago, it was purely a technical list. I
communicated with my broken english. and at that time, people concentrated
on linux, foss etc. not on language. but everyone followed mailing list

guidelines).
