For some reason I don't completely catch what you are saying, but I guess
it is something along the lines that we should have a specific discussion
forum for the en_US (American English, the "original" text) version? Or
maybe a discussion about whether we should have a separate discussion forum?

I do believe discussing the English strings are somewhat related to the
translation of them, so maybe because of that I fail to see a very sharp
division between them and the localization. The English strings are, in
principle, also a type of localization, I would say. They just have a much
higher authority, as they become the authoritative source for the rest of
the localizations.

Yeah, and maybe what I wrote above is in some way also part of that
discussion that we probably should not take now? If so, you don't have to
respond to my comment now.


> but I propose to do it


Does "do it" mean start the discussion, or are you referring to something
else?

Is it ok for you all?


Fine with me. :-)

Très bien, Sophie!
