[ox] Re: Pit -D -E



Hey, nice to see the list coming up that fast... Though it's name chosen
was not suggested by me ;) Anyway, what's in a name...?

E:
I am going to write in both English and German in this mail.  English
parts are marked with an E: at the paragraph's beginning, whereas
contributions (which include the same massage) are marked with a D: 

D:
In dieser Mail werde ich sowohl deutsch als auch englisch schreiben.
Englische Teile sind mit E: am Absatzbeginn markiert, wohingegen deutsche
Teile (gleichen Inhalts) mit einem D: beginnen.

E:
Good point! As we have (at least) one (potential) english speaking
contributor, english would be nice. On the other hand, english might
exclude (or at least heavily discourage) potential participants who would
reject to read and write in English, either because they last experience
or simply courage... 

D:
Gute Idee! Da wir (wenigstens) eineN englischsprachigeN TeilnhemerIn
haben, ist englisch sicher keine schlechte Idee. Auf der anderen Seite mag
eine englische Liste potentielle TeilnehmerInnen abschrecken, die entweder
wegen fehlender Kenntnisse, Erfahrung oder einfach fehlenden Mutes an
keiner englischsprachigen Liste teilnehmen werde.

Greetings,

Oli
