I personnally dissent from this idea; one great strength of free software is its internationalization open to everyone both in participating to translations and using them. Making them "optional" is making the software weaker. If the need for smaller tarballs is real (which I doubt, given the bandwidth and diskspace you need to run Mailman :-) ), one option could be, on the contrary, to have a seperate download link for people who *want* a mono-lingual (supposedly US-English?) Mailman. -- Fil _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
