Globalization has two opposite trends. Generalization that makes
everything alike, but also has localization.
Localization is a good force to help grow local community. Makes
people with same local issues get together and work for showing their
cultural identity.
It can be a non ending debate about academic and historic reasons for
languages, but I think we are moving away from that debate toward a
local community expression. Making something useful.

As Paul said "This is great -- I saw some of your recent conversations
on the trans@ list and I applaud the teamwork!" This is moving away of
passionate debate looking for productive work. Last couple of emails
are late.

Today I wrote an email saying that Fedora Community is a reference for
many smaller communities (like Nicaraguan). These small communities
need to learn from Brazil, but also need to solve their own local
obstacles. As member of a small community, we can not perform as
Brazil does today, as we do not have the experience that you, as
group, have accumulated.
I don't see in the last couple of emails anything representative of
the admiration that I profess toward the Brazilian community.
