Alexander, if my programming skills were as good as your English skills, I
would consider myself an expert. Your English communication skills are
fantastic! So please don't consider yourself a poor English communicator.
I have a friend who knows some Russian. She lived in Belaruse (?) for six
months. I'm not sure if she could help, but if you would like for me to put
the two of you in contact, I'll be happy to do so.

So if accollarts.org is sitegroup 2 I would use the username 'enrique!2' ?

I can understand the schema a little. I guess if it was in Russian I would
