sorry, but I do not have the time to do so.

I see, that Switzerland is special in many terms.

But, I do not see any problem creating local language lists beside this one
and keep this one as coordination list. Weekly (or monthly) reporting
should make this as transparent as it should be. (Just a suggestion).

BTW: Some years ago I had a colleague who growed up in Eastern Germany. She
never learned a single word of English. Even the message "printer out of
paper" made her scared. When she saw any English word she blocked totally.
When I saw that, I believed that language is an issue for some people.

Tot ziens

Dirk
