Hello Sören. talk-africa at openstreetmap.org is English language only but, 
in French-speaking West Africa, the Openstreetmap contributors use 
French almost exclusively in their Openstreetmap practice. French 
translation proves valuable in including them.

community - she can give you the local perspective.
