I am using a smartphone, so replying in the proper way is not easy, but I'll try.

And that isn't my purpose. I have talked about users, and not about the way we - as project members - work. Users will not look for informations inside a wiki, and any volunteer starts from the user POV (maybe developers are different). Let's also add that a website in English does not serve at all - for instance - most Italian native speakers, who will close the page before even trying to search for IT. The same applies to many other geographies. So, in a sense, the website is already serving better English native speakers than native speakers of any other language (maybe, Dutch and Nordic are exceptions, as they are usually fluent in English). Anyway, a transparent discussion about the US marketing list has already happened, when I have asked for it (please note that I'm Italian - as my first name says - and I live and work in Italy). I would support any other request for an English or Spanish local marketing list, because it just makes sense (and I would read the list to help: I can read also French and Portuguese). I hope this explains better. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
