Ubuntu-Arabic

Hello,

I can say it would be better to wait until we have a good number of active
groups and individuals from arabic countries before going into a "federal"
team.
We tried last year with not much success. I wrote to every Arabic loco team
leader in a first step then to every Arabic list at lists.ubuntu.com with a
very few responses and zero action.
In addition, the active people from Arabic countries now are either English
or French speaking with lesser interest in Arabic content.
For these reasons, we tried also to have ubuntu-arabic as a source of
support more than a social team. With a dedicated server we offered hosting,
IRC bots and others services that some literally refused. That was pretty
discouraging. Money and time were spent for nothing.

As almost nothing changed since last year, the big team is not for today I
think. If things changes, there will be a spontaneous need for an
ubuntu-arabic team.

Regards,
