Louis, Ian, all,
please, let's not restart an entire thread on this topic, who is right and who is wrong.
There are many more urgent topics waiting in the NLC and outside the NLC.
I'll soon try to speak with Ian, Ryan, Daniel, Louis, Jacqueline, on how we can make volunteers happier and more appreciated in the overall community of OOo; then, how can give all the chances to an EN NL project to succeed.
Then, we will all be able to judge by the results accomplished by the EN project if it was worth it.
Best,
Charles.

I think it was agreed that one born out of frustration was not a good idea which is why there has been backing off. That does not mean that in principle an EN project is not needed for the reasons Charles and Sophie articulate. To me its simply a matter of symmetry and being seen to be even-handed with all native languages and as far as possible their cultural identity. No doubt there are lines to be drawn on that score but I wouldn't like to see a line drawn at the point of never ever having an EN project.
Oh, I agree; an EN project is possible. I think there are some pragmatic issues to be dealt with, but those can be dealt with.
As to the representative(s) being versed in the issues, there are
actually three here: Sophie, Pavel (NLC), and Daniel (CCR).
best Louis
