Languages

Post by K7PT »

We need to have the languages set up where it is selectable for viewing.

I only known one, though imperfect, and that is English (U.S.) and so am only interested in that which is in my vocabulary. :roll:

Also, with the many different languages, a number of things will be discussed in one language and the other users will have no knowledge of the discussion content, which may be a benefit to all. :(

I'm afraid that that the forum will become diluted and proportional to the number of languages.

I am not being negative, just expressing the "downside" to this splitting into different factions.

We will see how it works, and we will take corrective actions if things goes wrong. Closing forums also, if needed.

Developers and testers support will be provided in English only, so i'm expecting "interesting" things will be discussed in the main area of the forum.
If an user needs support for configuring something i think this will not "reduce" the interest around the main part of the forum.

Unfortunately many users are not attracted by Log4OM because... "there is not an italian version of the manual"...
Yes, i know that this is somewhat "stupid" but we must deal with this. Language oriented forums are made to provide BASIC support to users that won't read/write in english, user that without this kind of support will probably not use the software o refers to other forums for "general discussions".

Nothing is forever... with some exceptions :)

Anyway thanks for sharing your opinions, i will take them in high consideration and i (we) will monitor the situation. All together, in line with Log4OM spirit.
