When we find that bridge we'll cross it. note/ When i first set up the OOo Native-Lang lists, I debated between one big party list and discrete lists. The party list was represented most obviously, then, by Mozilla's l10n & i18n list: All languages, all the time. Discrete lists tended to become walled gardens, silos and boredom was the least of their problems. This kind of problem is easy enough to fix later on and there any number of solutions one can use, not least of which is just informing naive subscribers how to filter noise out. For now, I think we all agree that it's far better to have a noisy room than too much dedicated silence. louis >
