We do that here as we are not native english speakers. I do that since the 1st day I used a computer, I do that since every songs on the local radio is in english and I do that.. oh sorry, off topic. Well, english is the language of choice for programming because everyone understands very basic english words. In a world where a lot of people from many countries have to work together (even in small local companies) then yes, english is the choice. You have documentation and inline docs to document them in your native language, like the books available in korean, french or russian. Regards, --Pierre
