Re: Can we measure Fedora users by language?

Hello everyone,

I often installed two langpacks because I always start like  "I should get
used to German interface"  but then I realise I don't like many
translations so I switch to English.
Nowadays I only install British English and German is left only for
dictionaries or similar stuff.
So basically, yes, 99% users will install only one langpack. If it's
possible to measure those installed langpacks, we could find out something
interesting.
My two cents.

Kind regards,
Silvia
