But I want to add one more comment - and perhaps this is the most important. Being on a true native language and/or region based list is more then just an address change, it is a different attitude - on the international lists one is always less familial. One anecdotal example: On the international lists Florian is Florian on the De lists he is Flo. Which is IMO how human nature works. That is not, I suppose, of issue with regards to a link from what is correctly described as the International site. The only problem IMO is that there are not lists for au or a nz or uk or some grouping of those.
