> As good as vdrportal is as a VDR resource, the language barrier _is_ a problem for english speakers. Same with this mailing list for german speakers ... and now? > or feeling like a welcome visitor/member A little tale, if I'm in the US, I have to speak english all time. If my US friends do visit me or colleagues are staying in Germany, I also have to speak english all the time. They don't even try to speak my/our language while staying in Germany. And hey, don't think they ever welcomed me in german language ... ^^ This is just a chicken-and-egg problem, you all don't try to use it, so no information is collected or any kind of community will be set up. There is an rarly used international part, but if somebody does ask in english, she/he gets an answer in english, wherever postet. Time and patience could solve a lot, even losing shyness of nativ german speakers to answer in english, but this up to you all ... Unfortunately the search function of vdr-portal sucks IMHO, so in all languages, better use google w/ "site:vdr-portal.de what-you-search-for". === Kind regards fnu _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
