That is not the way.

because they must be part of the proyect.
Is the only way for introduce the developer, the other cultures of this
planet, to MIX THE CULTURES and born a new identity.
If those forums exist, the development of the proyect will keep in english,
then Mozilla will keep being a project based on an english language
culture...
If people from all the world is into this, we must learn other languages; as
we have learned and helped to learn, little things of HTML or XUL or C++ or

If those forums exist, i believe the project dont deserve to be named open.
The Mozilla newsgroups are for developers to discuss bugs etc. Thus, I
don't think the current groups should be spammed with off-topic stuff.
