"ich kann da nur für mich sprechen, aber ich denke, dass die meisten 
Leute, die unseren internationalen Planet lesen, diesen in englischer 
Sprache erwarten. Wir haben extra einen portugiesischen Planet 
eingerichtet, auf Bitten von Eliane."

So, now you see why I think the mixture of languages is no good idea - 
the above was German on an English mailing list. :)

Here's the translation:
"I can only speak for myself, but I think that most people who read our 
international planet expect it to be in English language. We have 
specifically set up a Portuguese planet, asked for by Eliane."

Do you think a Planet that has a mixture of English, German, Portuguese, 
Polish, Chinese, Japanese and Czech is helpful to anyone? I doubt it, I 
think people won't read it at all. We've seen that when for the English 
blog we posted one German note - people were rather upset. ;-)

But, since we are on the website mailing list, what do people think?
I am not vetoing, this was just my personal opinion, so if there's 
positive feedback towards a multilanguagl Planet, why not?
