    Hello Everybody,

    MvdV>That Cyrillic is not covered and claiming that is not a problem MvdV>is
    an insult towards our fellow Fidoians in the East.

    Here we go again. Who made you the spokesperson for the Russians?

    The same applies "That French is not covered and claiming that is not
    a problem is an insult towards our fellow Cajuns in the West."

    French is widely spoken in many parts of the world, including
    Europe. Even though at present there are no sysops in France.

    Does that make me "the spokesperson for the French?" Of course not.

    All who write Cyrillic should be welcome to participate in their
    own language of choice, not by any language dictated by the Fidonews
    editor.

    All who write French should also be welcome to participate in their
    own language of choice.

    In the USA, there is only one language that is spoken coast-to-coast.
    That language is not English, but ASL. Should those who write in
    sign be disallowed from participating? Of course, the editor would
    have to make some changes, such as upgrading his system to be able
    to display the Gallaudet font ...
