I would agree on the fact that is's a bit weird and contrary to the
'ubuntu spirit' that everything seems to be happening mostly in dutch
only. Especially handing out Dutch-only Ubuntu posters at an
international event in Brussels seems not such a good idea...
Using English seems to me as well to be the best solution, it's a sort
of a-political language in our country, and it allows for newly-arrived
Belgians to be included as well.

views he liked. So was Stalin. If you're in favor of freedom of speech,
that means you're in favor of freedom of speech precisely for views you
despise."
