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.

    It snowed here too, Jacob, but we are not too far away (Mons, close to the French border)

    It's been a while I haven't seen a host speak about "The Merge", so we might have to let it go... I already posted in the suggestions thread about our peculiar issue, and heard nothing on the topic. Maybe is it really Adobe Fenwick that rues it.. or Adobe Neverland? :D

    Another month and a day, and this thread shall have made it through its fourth Christmas.

    Does any of our hosts have any news?

    Claudio, I hope you are enjoying late spring there.

    The first snow has fallen here.

    It strikes me that anybody approaching " knowledgeable" status in Elements would promptly abandon the program. :/ But then, what do I know

    Yes, I fixed a house, takes quite some time off from forums posting ;)

    There is not a lot of activity in the FR forum; mostly elements questions about lost databases, or database transition problems from one version to the other. Since there is no knowledgeable elements members, there is not so much activity. Maybe, if the forums were structured differently, had moderators, FAQs, it would help spin the wheel... Don't I have a déjà vu feeling?

    Is this thread reviving, or is this just a sudden and short lived spurt of activity?

    Pierre, we hadn't seen you around here for quite some time. The forums in Spanish are just managing to survive. Are things any better in the French side?

    "it is not even sure if the Spanish forums will survive the impending fusion. "
    Well, the fusion is still not a reality... Is there a status of the upcoming fusion somewhere? A deadline?

    Thanks, Jacob and Claudio...

    Neil, Jacob posts here mostly to help in keeping this thread afloat. Specially now that nobody seems to know, or be willing to say, if the forums in Spanish will be kept or abandoned when the big fusion finally comes. In the last attempt they were left in the limbo, and we only got them back when we recovered the old forums.

    I at least don't feel at all encouraged to propose improvements to forums that, for all I know, may disappear tomorrow.

    Jacob,

    ...although nothing about that difficult situation has anything to do with this topic.
