Question

Still no supervision in the French and Spanish forums?

I forgot that threads are extremely short lived in this forum, and the discussion that really began within an unrelated thread, here

Pierre Courtejoie, "Shouldn't these links be removed as soon as possible?" #8, 27 Feb 2005 1:21 pm

has already gone to the Archives, where it is in danger of going to the limbus in the near future.

I still think that this is an important issue, and still wait to see any improvement in those forums showing that the messages by Pierre and myself on the subject have not fallen in a void. Although we both value and thank Neil Keller for his attempts to get some reaction in higher quarters, his attempts have unfortunately been a failure.

It is pathetic to see pages in the forums in Spanish with templates that are written in a mixture of English and a very bad Spanish. It is even more pathetic that JC stopped more than a year ago feeling authorized to introduce any non trivial change to improve this situation. The worst part is however to feel that there is no one listening, or at least willing to admit that there might be problems in those forums.

I feel very disappointed.

    So you're more inland then, Ramón. Yes, I'm more accustomed to the coast where the weather is more moderated. In the winter there, if you want to get out of the gloom, you drive up in the mountains and get above the clouds. Can I guess the same might be true to escape heat, or does the heat climb mountains also?

    Look at how they effectively killed the Adobe Studio Exchange.

    Ssshhh, you'll wake them up. When the forums merge, I can't see it happening with the Adobe-side forums winning out. Look at it this way, there is the entire ColdFusion team at Adobe, who will promote the CF based MM-side forums. They have probably got 50-100 votes.

    Then there are the million or so users of the Adobe-side forum. We get, in total, one half a vote. So whose forum design do you think will win. Look at the change to happen some slow time, when they think we won't be paying attention, like Christmas time.

    Ramón, if I could, I would gladly send you most of the cold, but not many rain. We need rain, that has been scarce, for building water reserves to produce electric energy...

    I'm 100 miles NE of San Francisco, halfway between SF and Reno on I-80, Dorothy. Even Redding, farther up north, had a couple of 112ºF days as we did. Well, Redding is one the hottest spots during the summer.

    Anything near the coast around here is paradise at this time of year.

    That'a be different for those parts, Ramón. Or is it just that I think of Northern California as having somewhat moderated weather in most ways? Where about are you anyway? Most anyplace in the coastal Redwoods could easily be home for me!

    Send us some cold and some rain to Northern California, please.

    And one of the coldest winters around here...

    I wonder when the two sets of forums will finally become fused. And what the outcome will be. I don't think it's worth worrying about details such as the forums in Spanish until then. A very well kept secret in any case.

    By the way, in the meantime I have found that there is no official supervision in the ex Macromedia forums either.

    Another month of what is likely to become the wettest summer ever recorded up here.

    Over here, the very cold Winter we are having this year has already taken the lives of several people. Chile and Argentina depend heavily on natural gas from the latter for both producing electricity and heating purposes. Unfortunately, production in Argentina isn't enough to overcome their own crisis, although in Chile we are still somehow managing to heat our houses. We are all crossing our fingers for a milder rest of this winter, only way to prevent heavy rationing of energy in both countries.
