I have seen Hindi-speaking people getting frustrated all the while since the native people start the conversation in English, but gravitate to Tamil - which is completely alien to them. They feel let out, feel unwanted in the group - this is the seed for the growing resentment against us. I am not going to ponder the reason why we have this situation - this is not the appropriate group. Long story short - English remains our(read Tamil Nadu) link language to the rest of the world.

Re: [Ilugc] என் ஆர் சி பாஸ் - மின்பதிப்பாக்கப் பட் டறை
Hi, This mail is intended to clear this issue out of our list(may be we can lay an example for such lists that have language diversity issues - rather than suppressing one group of people) and not bring in new fights. One good example is Linux users groups in France that are giving more importance to their native language - French(minimum English and maximum French) http://www.linux.org/groups/france.html We can't apply the same directly to Indian Linux users Groups as such because we have more than 20 official languages(think so). But, the official languages of the region in which the LUG is operating can be allowed to be used in it. Is this the scenario where some one suddenly comes here and asks not to use English in this list and use Thamizh instead of English. If someone did say that then they can be treated differently. But, People are questioned inappropriately just because their post is in Thamizh. In despair they reciprocate with some content that leads to a 50 post thread. We(all) can comment each other easily and find/get some short term enjoyment out of it. This thread won't stop and if it stops it is a small pause for another storm of messages in a similar thread where someone write in Thamizh. Let us put a final and strong stop for these threads(selection of communication language) with correct rectifications in mail list rules. List administrator can decide upon this(He can have a online meeting or offline meeting with list members) and send a final mail containing list of change to be made in our list with respect to different languages in posts. The delay between my last post and this one is due to some digging work done in earlier threads of same offensive nature. *We would be able to conclude considering the two factors that caused this issue :* 1. A General Classification of people here as members and will be as members in future(This categorization is not for segregation of any kind it is just for the sake of grouping people based on the languages they know where they reside.) 2. Ideology of people under each category. *Let me categorize the people who have posted here or a member of our list(* * based on member types in ideology perspective**):* 1. One who knows Thamizh well - ie., proficient in reading and writing (even if his mother tongue may or may not be Thamizh ; His mother tongue could be one among the 22 languages or so; He could have been in Chennai/any Thamizh speaking community in a certain period of time learnt it with love towards it) but is not familiar with English( he may or may not have the willingness to learn and use English) or can't read write in English as of now. 2. One who is proficient in Thamizh and English or at least who knows to read and write in both languages able to contribute in the translation effort here(translation of threads). 3. One who knows only English( ~Thamizh). *Reasons favoring people in category 1:* 1. He/She should be given chance here to interact freely in Thamizh.( This list describes itself as Indian Linux Users Group - Chennai), Chennai is the capital of Tamilnadu. Most people here would be from tamilnadu( ofcouse it has global members - but they have their own regional groups - almost all major cities in India and cities/towns/villages around the World). People stated that there can be TLUGC(Tamil Linux Users Group Chennai) then this list should have been ELUGC(English Linux Users Group Chennai). I am not mocking anyone nor the list but to bring out that such things are not actual solutions for this thread(It kindles new arguments). 1. Many members of ILUGC are here because they were/are residing in chennai for a period of time(past or present). 2. And a considerable amount of people here are the residents of Tamil Nadu(a major portion of whom may not know English but can/will turn out to be great contibutors of Linux/Opensource/Free Softwares not only in Translation but programming,testing, designing, concepts, etc.,). 2. My view is - He/She should be allowed to post in the regional language without separate rules while posting(India's constitution acts state that each Non-Hindi state has the right to practise/use its regional language and English. In non-Hindi states it would be Hindi instead of English - not another cold war from here ) 3. Based on the Indian Constitution acts and rights we have this situation where at least a single person (will be)/(is ) a member of this list who may not use English in his/her workplace or education system or home - in such case even if he would have learnt English it would have diminished in due course of time - Category 2 3 people need English in some or one of the three reasons so we are able to keep English in out mind. Non-Hindi states - states where Hindi is not a mandatory language can use/practise their regional language along with English. Even central government activities/transaction/business can be

[Ilugc] Communicating in lists
Hello, Part of doing FOSS is to learn to *communicate* --- as a writer *and* as a reader. While writing, one should make one's best attempt to say things as clearly, logically and briefly as possible. Punctuation and formatting are important as well. The writer should be trying to reach the reader. As readers, we should make an effort to try and understand what is being said. In particular, this means that we should forgive all errors of the above type---if we can get the meaning. The reader should be trying to read the mind of the writer. In both cases, we need to spend more *time* to read and to write. The writer should use the save as draft key until you have time to put in the effort. The reader should use the next key until you have the time to read carefully. In brief, if you don't have anything to say, don't say it, if you don't like what is written just ignore/delete it. Instead of spending so much energy on deciding which *language* we can communicate in, we should spend some time on communicating!
