We need one common language for coding and comments. Therefor I'd say
we should stick to English as the mostly agreed upon main language
for PEAR. And therefor imho we should avoid having docs which are
primarily written in a non-English language. English is used all over
the world! And even if we take somebodies freedom with this, I think
we should demand that English is *the* primary language. Makes life a
lot easier. (PS: Think what will become if somebody starts writing in
German just because he is too lazy to write English - complete
nonsense to me.)
