Peter, there is absolutely nothing to give the impression that questions is meant to be entirely, exclusively, or even primarily English-language list. Consider the following: 1) FreeBSD is a US project, and the US has no official language, so there is no implied language for the project. In addition, many people in the US speak languages (natively) other than English. I should know. I'm from Northern Michigan and if you want to try explaining to a big burly fur-trader descendant named Reuben who lives on Bois Blanc island that he is not supposed to speak French, you're likely to get the crap beaten out of you. In short, even if you look at freebsd.org as being country-specific (I disagree with this in the first place, but anyway) that still doesn't mean English should necessarily dominate on its lists. 2) There are NO official french-language lists. There is a French-language list, but it is not official. I am subscribed to it, and as such I can assure you that, per day, more francophones read the official list than they do the unofficial french-language list. This makes it quite unreasonable to expect francophones to use the unofficial list, knowing they won't receive support. If you would like to continue with this connerie, you may do so; but if you do, don't expect thereafter that your messages will continue to show up in my inbox. By the way, I assume you are indeed a native anglophone, so even according to the guidelines there is no excuse for your spelling of xenophobic with a z.
