I'm sure the requirement to use English does turn some people away. If that's not your native language it's easy to be ashamed of your writing and avoid communicating on our channels. Until now we've always (or mostly) said that we can't have non-english channels as it is hard or impossible for the ASF to have oversight on those - I think that's still valid today. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: diversity-unsubscr...@apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: diversity-h...@apache.org
