Roger,

Well, I think that Paulo is not very right saying:

Many people (in Brazil) just don't have money to pay classes for study
another language. It's a social problem, not just fear.

I and some other translators here in Brazil just want to bring GRASS
for this people, not create a parallel community and forget foreign
people. Ok?

Also, my project (Poseidon Linux) website is holding a Forum to bring
this "scared" people  to GRASS, and not to Arcview like most people do
here (using a pirated copy!!).

I think that some of this people will naturally reach this mailing
list as they interest for GRASS grows.

Cheers,
