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.

    Pierre,

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053084/

    Deebs,

    Actually, it was the Duchy of Grand Fenwick.

    Yes, Peter Sellers playing a bunch of different roles, including that of Grand Duchess Gloriana XII.

    Ramon - it may have been the Right Royal Duchy of Ruritania

    Pretty good movie - Peter Sellers?

    I'll have to google that one, but guess that it is a joke.

    From another thread, OZpeter said:

The other is a matter of policy and management and human resourcing - or so it would seem to me - possibly therefore more complex in reality. "

    Human Resourcing? for volunteers? I'm sure that two posters in this thread would volunteer... ;)

    What was the name of the country in The Mouse That Roared? That must be the one.

    Thanks ramon for keeping this issue alive.
    I tried to contact one of the persons listed on the French site of Adobe, and sadly received no answer.

    Personnally, I find this sad as a good and active user to user forum could be a nice incentive for somebody to buy a program that he does not know: having a lot of knowledgeable users that are willing to help you learn an application is a big plus.

    I don't understand how it comes that the second largest software manufacturer is letting some inexpensive advertizement unnatended.
    If the forum was monitored, had moderators, a lot of active members, I'm sure that the specialized press would talk about it.
