My comment on topic is
1) There is no need for a language tag. Because when somebody sends a Tamil
mail the subject line will be also in Tamil. So if some body see a Tamil(or
even any non-English subject) he or she can ignore if he/she is not able to
read it. We are much bothered about freedom
2) Providing translation for the mail - If the original author of non-English
mail provided translation somebody can volunteer to translate it.
3) I am not seeing any relevancy for a Language specific mailing list under the
roof of ILIGC. Any how we will be talking about same techno-philosophical
matters related to FOSS.
4) I am a non Tamil Speaker, still the Tamil mails are not at all annoying me.
With my limited Tamil reading skill I may try to read and understand it time
permits. Otherwise I may ignore it; like a topic which is not interesting to
me or totally unknown to me (I think most people will do the same). So what I
feels is that - creating a new mailing list guidelines is not required.
5) I have seen that Malayalam mails are appearing in the Kerala based FOSS
mailing list. Many non malayalaees are there in the list. Still I didn't saw
any such complaints in the mailing list, or arguments for a Malayalam tag.
6) If we increase tags what will happen if somebody says taht I am not
interested to read "technology X" and "technology Y" related mails and the
authors are requested to tage the mails with [technology X] and [technology Y]
tag?

Thank you & all those who stood for the cause, understanding us.
We wish the change will happen at some point, until then we will keep
reminding.
