Ooh, I know quite a few free-software documentation groups who'd love
to meet you!

One of the great things about the online community, is that I really
think there is a much higher proportion of multilingual people, and
especially of people who value being multilingual.
I still remember a developer on a translation list, apologizing
because he couldn't read bug reports in users' own languages. "I'm
very sorry, " he said seriously, and with obvious embarrasment, "I
only speak about 10 languages."
