Mixing languages is just bad netiquette. ?I have no problems with a
diverse culture but create a different mailing list and post there.
Your point about poor netiquette is well received. The number of
of Tamil posts and users are too small to start a separate list.
Please consider that this LUG is hosted Tamil Nadu, and therefore
has an obligation to promote FOSS especially in Tamil. I agree that
it's a different matter if someone posts in Swahili.
Also consider the fact that the Tamil localization team is a very
small group of passionate developers. Localization is essential in
enabling millions of non-English speaking Indians to use computers.
The currents state of Tamil content online leaves a lot wanting, and
we should not discourage those who are actively improving it.
Btw, the current ILUGC mailing list etiquette mentions nothing
about the accepted languages in this list. So at least in this sense
these Tamil posts are not doing anything wrong.
This is my last post in this thread.
