I am equally confused. I would rather NOT have non-english on the list, if it is avoidable. Not that I have anything against other languages, but debian-user should be an open forum for discussion for all of its readers, and using non-english does not propagate that very well. Private discussions between a few list readers should be done with private email. Of course, if the people posting these non-english mails do not comprehend english, the case is different. But like I said, IMHO we should try to avoid it. Comments?
