Thanks for asking, Flavio. That's one of the topic I mentioned in my candidacy, that's because as a Chinese working on OpenStack in the past 6 years, I do have some experiences about this though I agree it couldn't be done in 1 cycle/year. But I think it's still a domain I can contribute for OpenStack.
I can still remember I had to join the Glance meeting at 2:00AM, and was challenged because of saying "Hi guys" in a public channel though "Hi guys" is used very common in New Zealand. Should we expect a non-English native speaker to understand the details between “Hi there", "Hi guys" and "Hi folks"? I think that's the language and culture barrier for many new contributors. We (Brian, Erno） even tried to propose a panel at summit to discuss it before. Currently, it's more important than ever to keep those new contributors due to the changes happening around OpenStack nowadays.
