That sounds reasonable. Maybe it deserves to be a "written" policy. In fact, an English-only reply to a question in French (etc.) would probably satisfy most people who are asking for technical advice. But I still don't see anything wrong with two francophones communicating in French on this list. Die-hard unilingual readers are no more deprived of information than they would be if the francophones just didn't bother to use the list in the first place, which would be a likely reaction to a linguistic rebuff. -- Tom _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
