Hi,
This is OT:

I am sure I don't have the best English and I do a lot of faults. But in Germany *everybody* believes to speak English. Pleas correct things like packet / package. Bad translation can cause a lot of problems. (Also one can easily see if some news is only translated from English or if the network has a man down wherever.) Porsche for example told their employees not to use English for their work. Person A translated something from German into English and person B had to do it vis versa and half of the content was lost somewhere on the way.

Anyway this will become very OT ...
