Congratulations to Franc and Andrea for getting localised content
started for Spanish and Italian.

Dear Marketers

This is exciting news  - it gives us the opportunity to start to attract new
users not familar with english to NB.org.

We should announce the start of these additional languages
to the rest of the community maybe as soon as the  Greek and
Dutch pages are completed.  We will now start to support
four additional localizations of nb.org content -- how cool is that ; )

Maybe we can have one of our existing members of the native language
supporting community help create the announcement.

Ideally once we have an announcement, we would like to have this
announcement on local java user group sites,
local open source sites, developer sites etc.  in native language.

If you would like to help with this announcement or in sending it out to
local sites of interest let me know. If you have any
suggestions on other marketing activities we can participate in please
suggest away.  All ideas are very welcome.

Regards
Zaheda
