UN has several languages other than French so I suggest lets not get poor UN
in between :)

We all understand we need support for multiple languages and English is just
a medium to interact among people with different languages. It is by no
means a precondition for anyone to contribute.

Hope we don't fight any more on what language as long as there is someone in
the team down there to share with rest of the global teams regarding their
activities.

Best Regards
Varun

Why not the official language of the UN. FRENCH.


Hello Dave.

If finding people who can communicate in English is a hard thing to do in
Brazilian community, French would be almost impossible.

Cheers.

Ops,

Please, where it says "I'm not ashamed to admit that my English is
awful
when you need to talk.", substitute for: "I'm not ashamed to admit that
I
am
not fluent in English when necessary to "talk".

Rgds,

Hi,

In practical terms, require all who wish to contribute are fluent in
English seems rather elitist. I'm not ashamed to admit that my
English
is awful
when you need to talk. But I am reassured when I need to read or
translate
any text in English or even write. Here in Brazil we have several
people
with fluency in English, which can be "filters". I trust these
people!!
And
I think it's past time to treat Brazil as a trouble spot. Things have
worked
very well here.
I agree with Florian when he says that leave this decision to the
local
community and would like to apply for this job I've always done since
the
days of OpenOffice.org.

Hi :)
+1
I gather that the Brazilian Team is discussing what they want from
people
in
this role in their teams.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Building a network of
marketeers

Hi,

I am not entirely sure we have defined what would be the roles of
this
network. And I suggest that defining a basic set of roles first
would
help
us define what kind if skills we're looking for.

For instance, such a marketeer network ought to have as its primary
mission
to translate the project's PR and to spread field information back
and
forth
(between the field and the more central areas of the project). Such
a
mission, that I imho believe must be carried out before anything
else,
requires the use of English. I'd be happy if we could set such a
network
and
let's see what else we can come up with.

Best,

Charles.
