As a side note: I personally know Germans and >foreign Chinese students here in Germany >working in this business, whose English skills wouldn`t allow reading >complicated DSAs. Please don't get me wrong. I am not promoting an elite circle of "selbstbeweihraeuchernden Goettern" as you Germans call it, that distinguishes itself by the fact that they are able to speak English. I would support anything that would open this topic to a broader community. But for the reasons I stated I do not believe that a translated list will help much in this matter. In fact English is not my first foreign language either; it is not even my second foreign language. But I decided to learn enough of it to participate here, not because I like the language so much but because I found I could not get around without it. I was really surprised (in a positive way) to hear from these German and Chinese linux administrators that are doing well without being able to understand english DSA's. I am really wondering how they do it, because I could not do it.
