<font face="Arial">Exactly, Tapani--I have no idea what you said,
but your point is clear :)<br>
<br>
During WSIS, I was a member of the WFUNA (World Federation of
United Nations Associations) Task Force on WSIS. Our home working
languages were Danish, Spanish, Urdu, and six others, and no one
did their IG/WSIS work at home in English. BUT we did all of our
TF work in English, because it was the only possible way for us
communicate.<br>
<br>
That was years ago. Translation services have improved. What
practical steps can we take for language inclusion? <br>
Can we include some kind of translation as suggested by
Rui/Carlos?<br>
Should we have different threads in different languages?<br>
Should the subject line indicate the language as well as the
topic?<br>
<br>
Has anyone found a working solution on another list? <br>

<pre wrap="">querida Ginger,
Si entiendo, pero si no hay debate en español, sólo pueden participar
aquellos que "dominan" el ingles´, no solo quienes lo manejan medianamente.
Y esto implica no sólo las reglas del idioma. sino sus modismos, sus
connotaciones y denotaciones, su cosmovisión.
El debate en otros idiomas en necesario y requiere soporte económico, de
recursos humanos, etc.

Näinhän se on, mutta vaikka minä ymmärränkin kohtuullisesti myös
espanjaa, en ole vakuuttunut tällaisen demonstraation hyödyllisyydestä.
