 Uhm, I am not fully sure what you sugguest: Do you sugguest a events
list for german speaking participants, or a list for events in germany?
There's a fine but important difference. The first wouldn't make much
sense for one should have to forward the infos from the english list to
there and back again.

 The second also doesn't really make much sense for there are always
non-german speaking people heling out for events in germany. So a
seperate list for german events would be still mainly be in english (or
one has to update the other readers every now and then about the status
quo).

 That makes more sense and I hope it is possible to educate the people
here to do it. The topic popps up every now and then and should be
addressed.

 *g* Your point is reasonable and it is always hard to find the best
borderwalk between the different possible solutions.

 Have fun,
