Re: Arch's official language

Hello

Nice idea anyway... 

But you guys... Have you studied the possibility to have the forum in a very nice langage that we currently use in a part of Switzerland ?

It's called "Schwytzerdütsch" and it's very nice to learn and to play with...

Strange sentence coming from a swiss french part user, isn't it

Just change the locale to "de_DE.utf8" on your system (will become default anyway),
and you'll learn it soon enough.

Re: Arch's official language

Hallo

Ya und auch für mich... Ich wohne ins Wallis, aber wie gesagt, im Zentralwallis wo wir, normalerweise französich sprechen.

Es ware sowie so noch schlimmer wenn wir hier "Oberwalliserdütsch" sprechen müssen. 

Ich habe nur Hochdeutsch in der Schule gelernt... Aber es scheint wie Jahrunderten früher...

Meine Kunden sind aber sehr sympatisch mit mir, und sprechen Hochdeutsch im Keller, deshalb is es ein wenig einfacher für mich

Re: Arch's official language

what? i dont think this is a good idea at all! english is the main computers language, why do you want everything to be in german? this will only make archlinux less atractive for users.

i dont even know what i am pressing. isnt there a www.arch.us ? what about pacman, you'r gonna make it german too? and AUR?

Ja über den nächsten Tagen werden wir langsam jede Seite in Deutschen umwandeln. Pacman wird beschränkt, also ist Englisch vorhanden, aber die Rückstellung ist deutsch.

Haha, nicht schlecht .

I hope you'll make the GNOME calendar start on Monday now, for God's sake!

And 'LOL' in German is also 'LOL' .

Re: Arch's official language

OK, that's no good

I had only a few classes in high school. BTW will man pages etc. change to default german? and I mean everything??? or just the forums, and the official pages?

It would be my 5th language (not counting the programming languages: Hungarian, Slovak, Czech, English... and now German

EDIT: NEVER MIND now i get it.... really funny

mkay ... I'm sorry to say this ... I don't know german and I don't plan to learn it just to use this distro. It's been a great thing ... I guess it's ubuntu for me now .

Re: Arch's official language

http://ubuntuforums.org/ it works quite well ...
It's really a pity because I thought Arch would evolve in something nice ... something that any user can use.
Why don't people use Kiwi Linux ...it's ubuntu no? Because it's a Romanian distro !!!

I can't handle this. Had enough problems getting the Euro symbol working on my keyboard. Now I can't seem to find the umlaut key at all. I'm going back to Ubuntu!!

Re: Arch's official language

Since Arch is Canadian, I would have expected that French would be the official language. There are more Quebecois on the private mailing list than Germans.

ich wollte mich ja sowieso registrieren, aber das ist ja nun der ultimative grund. für den ersten tag läuft es doch schon ganz gut mit der sprachumstellung.

könnte da mal ein mo derator (könig???) alle englische beiträge nach "Other Languages" verschieben?

grüße sp42b.
