<PRE>Hi Wolfgang,
In Turkish, we, too, have two 'you'. I pay attention to use offical approach
but as Turkish team we haven't discussed this complexity. So thank you for
reminding.
Regards,
numan

><i> In the German team meeting we stumbled over a problem which may not
</I>><i> apply to many other languages, especially not to English: the
</I>><i> difference between "you" and "you" :)
</I>><i> Meaning the way to address the readers of Mageia website, either with
</I>><i> the friend-to-friend informal "Du" (French "tu") or with the formal
</I>><i> "Sie" (French "vous").
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We looked at Debian as another community project, they are using the
</I>><i> formal adress on their German website, same with KDE and openSUSE.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My proposal (which reached a 5:2 result in a short poll of 7 meeting
</I>><i> participants) was:
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 1. On the website which is the official presentation of the
</I>><i> organisation use the formal approach.
</I>><i> 2. In the wiki, which is the community environment, use the informal
</I>><i> approach.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> It may sound a small thing for foreigners but it is a question for
</I>><i> Germans. How does Mageia.org want to be seen from the outside. Pls
</I>><i> keep in mind that the official website will not be read only by
</I>><i> community people but also by people who do not belong to communities
</I>><i> or are not familiar with the informal way.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> WDYT?
