I agree that would be useful... Let the list know when it's done. :-)

Yes, if possible, that would be a better place for that sort of content.

Not a strong one. FWIW, Fedora Planet allows for mixed language in the
main 'planet flow', and I fail to spot any way to
categorize/separate/filter/whatever posts by language.

Personally, I don't think it's a big deal but, but I do find it a little
bit annoying, so, yes, I'd vote for some more language-wise separation,
if possible with small enough effort.

At the same time, I wouldn't reject content on "language grounds", if
it's sensible, of course.

So, perhaps accept if as an usual request (again, if sensible) for now,
and set up some language filtering machinery (again, if possible)?

That's my 2 cents...
