Either way, on an IT world the "natural language" is English at least in the majority of IT areas. So, I don't think we should get the communication inside the Team even more complicated by using several different languages our by subdividing it. Regarding our LoCo Team, well, I'm not as active as I would like to be but I will try to help as much as I can.

There is no real need to split our small group even further - as, in my opinion, the current structure has worked well and we haven't really had any communication problem due to language barriers between our respective linguistic regions. As everyone knows, people in Switzerland communicate preferably in English rather than using another national language that is not their mother-tongue. And it seems to me that everyone on our list is able to communicate in English.

It seems this would mean we could finally find a suitable structure for the ubuntu-ch LoCo, with one sub LoCo for the Swiss-German part, and one for the French part (and of course one for out Italian-speaking friends should anybody express the interest for such a thing). This way we could also have regional languages as official languages for each sub LoCo (a problem we've been struggling with since the team's beginning), and keep English for the country-wide LoCo? it might make things a little more active, too, hopefully. As you can see from the link the only requirement is to have one representative from each sub loco be part of a LoCo council that takes decisions for the whole LoCo. That would mean two delegates in our case, which I think is easy to do. Thoughts? </blockquote> Nice Idea, but ... as you might have seen, activity on ubuntu-ch has massively decreased over the past years. This is why I do not see any reason to split our small group even further. If anyone else sees some real benefits and is willed to volunteer in this area, please state your arguments.
