totally agree with andreas posting stuff in your mother tongue in an english forum is just not appropriate how would you feel if everybody starts to use his mother tongue this would be a multiculti whatever group without anybody beeing able to read anything else
so no - write in english or post in in the corresponding Malaysian cakePhp forum thats my opinion by the way: every Malaysian developer who wants to try out cake would need to understand English anyway (so for the rest of the 2xx countries/languages on this planet) maybe there already is some translation in the cookbook for you guys - but the comments and functions are still explained in english - you would not get very far, anyway. on some topics its just best practice to communicate in the language accepted as world language. at least as long as you want to communicate with people "abroad" (and not just your neighbors or friends) and the cake community probably is one of those cases :) take it as an advice for the feature ebooks - if you want to share them with the rest of the world i bet everybody could live with it, even those Malaysian programmers you wanted to address On 30 Jul., 10:52, Andreas Derksen <andreasderk...@arcor.de> wrote: > hi, > well, in comparison to english, its still to less people who understand > that language ;) > > most open source stuff is written in english, to make it available to all. > > anyway, thanks for that effort, i'd like to read that ebook, but > unfortunately i don't understand malay ;) i would appreciate an > international version of that ebook, as there are to less free (e)books > out there imho. > > greets > Andreas > > leop schrieb: > > >> i dont think a lot of people are able to read that - or know the > >> language at all > >> i wonder... why not using ENGLISH in the first place? > > > I can only assume you made this comment to raise some hackles.
