Requiring English out of stubbornness is just not acceptable, of course. Some people have to be reminded, once in a while, that we are living on a planet, and that they are not the mandatory center of this universe. This being said, most Lilypond users know they have a wider chance of being understood, replied to and helped, if they write in English. This is merely the statement of current state of things, with nothing judgemental in it. Moreover, the preponderance of English not likely to change for quite a long while still. Until now, I see the occurrence of non-English messages as much more refreshing than polluting. Let's welcome them. When I cannot make a meaning out of the words, I can at least hear the music in them, and especially here, we should all be sensitive to all kind of music! :-) -- François Pinard http://pinard.progiciels-bpi.ca _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
