I have somewhat mixed feelings about this. Obviously something written
in your own language is more interesting to read. On the other hand, you
may not bother reading the other language(s), and thus miss some
information. Important things should either be in English or
multilingual, IMHO. Multilingual would mean at least French and Dutch
since I personally wouldn't trust my German skills. It might be a good
idea to have 3 "editors" who can review these posts.
I have no problem with region specific or more personal things being in
the language of choice of the author.
As for multilingual blogs: I have no experience with Drupal, but with
most blogging systems you can create categories. You could then create 4
top categories: General (multilingual or English) and one for each
language group. Further subcategories could be created depending on need.
I do have one question: in whose hands is the openstreetmap.be domain?
According to the WHOIS information, this is a person named Davy Priem,
but I have no idea who this is. Can anyone give me/us some enlightenment?
Best Regards,
Gyrbo
