Eh - "Emacs's Internationalization"?
Even the French Situationists realized the
futility of poster/slogan politics and
discontinued their international in 1972. [1]
It _is_ Anglo-American! The Germans and French
already do it, and the Russians are coming
strong, as are many, many others!
The only ones that are a bit behind are the
Spanish-speaking world - which is a bit
surprising, as every third or so of their words
are all but identical to the English equivalent
- or put it the other way around, if you wish -
_anyhow they will come as well_, it is
inevitable and _it's all good_.
Stop being in denial!
