It took me a while to read the language discussion of RocketMQ. I think we can follow the rules below: Only bug report is allowed on Github issues, and discussions / feature request / etc.. should be moved to mailing list. In fact, PPMC’s might need to encourage users to move such thread to mailing list. Discussion happens on the mailing list should be English and it is PPMC’s job to encourage people get involved in the mailing list with English Bug report on Github can be any language, actually, I think it’s totally acceptable to report a bug in any language if the user would like to. Maybe I should write the above rule formally in the document when I am available.

Or bilingual community is also fine.
