(Inay, mapapalaban ako ng English dito...) I guess there will be issues
publishing posts in Tagalog, coz not most of us Filipinos don't speak the
language. We could have standard English posts, but we I guess there is a
need to localize them for the benefit of those who have difficulty
understanding entries which are higly technical and verbose (for example,
teachers or SME consultants or entrepreneurs). But if we expect our readers
to be like us avid users of Ubuntu and Linux, then there should be no
problem publishing our articles in English.
