Salut Mohamet,

s'il vous plaît pardonnez mon ignorance de la langue française. Je
voudrais encore tendre la main à vous et tenter de communiquer sous
quelque forme que nous pouvons.

Google Translate peut pas très précis, donc je voudrais demander
gentiment Severin, Rod ou quelqu'un d'autre sur cette liste qui parle
anglais, pour faire plaisir à traduire (ou résumer) mon message.

Merci beaucoup!

Cristiano
