Lists in Your Language

These lists are intended for community members who cannot communicate in english on the other lists. Note in the interests of maximising the sharing of community knowledge use of the english lists wherever possible is recommended. In cases where that is not possible the following localised lists are available. Each list has a "community leader" who voluntairily acts as a liason between their list members and the wider english community, for example translating and cross-posting anything of interest (though this is not expected for normal day-to-day traffic).
