Thanks Marcus, <br><br>We also fear that automated translations are not sufficient for this type of discussion, but we may have a bit of funding for summarized translation as necessary. Since Spanish is now the second most spoken language, we feel like it would be appropriate for this type of discussion in that language to serve this large population. English is a good catch all for the scientific community, but I can imagine that access to German and Chinese discussions on the theme would be useful. We are lucky that our colleagues from India speak English! We will be working on this theme further if anyone has any ideas or is interested in participating. <br>

HI Alex,<div class="im"><br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">Markus, do you ever post across the languages between
the German and English discussions? Of all the discussion groups I
have found, this seems to be the most comprehensive and active. <br>
<br>

<br></div>
No, there's no cross-posting between my german and english language
boards. They are each independent boards. Some years ago I also have
set up a French and Hungarian language board with help of users
speaking those languages, but there was almost no traffic. So I
decided to just keep the german and english language boards only.<br>
<br>
It's quite ease to set up a group or discussion board but it's
permanent work to keep it running if it's still small and not well
known. Since I started my site in 2004 it now will have about
1.600.000 page views generated by about 165.000 visits (this year
2010, robots are not counted).<br>
So now it's quite well known in Germany and there are new postings
almost every day. But it will take a lot of additional work to get
some more action in the other areas and english language boards.<br>
<br>
If I would translate each posting manually => this would be too
much work (I also have a "normal" job to do at a biogas company :)
).<br>
And I think automated translation and cross-posting between my
boards would not be a very good idea, since the quality of
translations may be very wrong and also the topic interests between
the english language board users and german board users are quite
different. <br><font color="#888888">
