Yeah. But it is not exactly as if I was not calling
for you all to participate more hein ?
And as I said, I am not gonna just shut up because you
guys don't speak up, right ?

Ce n'est pas faute de vous interpeller souvent :-)
Je ne vais pas me taire uniquement parce que d'autres
ne peuvent pas parler.

This said, apart from blocking undesired ones, I think
we agree on most things Aoi. Just check last
decisions.
Hum...and CD release of raw french version perhaps as
well.

Je pense Aoi, qu'à part le CD et la pratique de
bloquer toute personne qui semble avoir une vision
autre que le politiquement correct, nous sommes
d'accord dans la majorité des cas. La plupart des
décisions "en rade" sur fr, ne le sont pas du fait
d'un blocage de ma part.

Yup. And I suppose you also have troubles finding the
relevant ones :-)

et peut être sont ils un peu trop nombreux également

See to which extremities we are resolved ? We need to
attract people fluent in english to have a say. How
democratic is that ?

Et donc, pour participer, nous devons nécessairement
parler anglais.

>How about other no-english Wikipedia ?

Not very much here either. At best one or two people
for each language participate actively to mailing
lists. No real representation can be fair this way.

Guillaume

Ben, pas mieux que nous.
