Hi, In practical terms, require all who wish to contribute are fluent in English seems rather elitist. I'm not ashamed to admit that my English is awful when you need to talk. But I am reassured when I need to read or translate any text in English or even write. Here in Brazil we have several people with fluency in English, which can be "filters". I trust these people!! And I think it's past time to treat Brazil as a trouble spot. Things have worked very well here. I agree with Florian when he says that leave this decision to the local community and would like to apply for this job I've always done since the days of OpenOffice.org.
