I agree with you Michael. Sometimes it is easiest for someone to
express themselves in their mother tongue. 
The mailing lists are archived so they can be translated later on.
Semi-private convesations should be on mailing lists too, because
they are archived. This allows for better understancing of issues in
the long run because more of the thoughts that went into them are
available publiclcy.

Furthermore, we're all grownups (or some pretend to be) so let's not
bicker.

Peace and WikiLove, man.
