Hello i-netters,
There has been a raging debate on Linux Users Group(LUG) forum about the usefulness of language localization of software following Mozilla Uganda's latest project -- Firefox Acholi. TechPost's Enterprise Editor Bright Onapito tries to digest and summarize the discussion in this post.

Thanks for passing this along. I'm glad to see that Michael has posted a
comment. I'd like to also add a comment, but I'll wait to properly
formulate my thoughts before doing so :-)

Thanks,
Jeff
