<div class="gmail_quote"><div>Personally I don't think it's a "language" question, most people in Luxembourg will search help in German, French or English (in this order of importance) in the abundance of forums available on the Internet. I thought that the purpose of the local community was to meet in person. In this case the problem is more geographical; we would like to gather the people that live nearby (let's say max. 1 hour driving). This does in no way exclude cooperation with other people living further away, but I think it's just easier to meet frequently if distances are not too big. <br>
<br> <br>Kind regards,<br><br><br>Dirk Estievenart<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Ubuntu BE and Ubuntu NL are already cooperation in some occasions; maybe it would be a good idea to start an Ubuntu Benelux cooperation effort to maximise the profit we gain from working together. This would make it easier for the Ubuntu enthusiasts in Luxembourg to come together without having to worry too much about the needed infrastructure. <div>
<br></div><div>Then again, most cooperation between Ubuntu NL and Ubuntu BE is for the Dutch speaking part of Belgium and the Netherlands, I'm not aware of cooperation between Ubuntu FR and Ubuntu BE. However, Ubuntu BE does point to the -nl and -fr forums and IRC channels for support. Things Ubuntu NL and Ubuntu BE do together are mostly release parties and the like.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So currently most cooperation seems to be language based, which could be a problem. Although Ubuntu BE uses German and French as well, no one has Luxembourgish on the list of supported languages. </div>
