Hi all,
I do not think that smolt statistics have the absolute truth to consider when determining the language usage... I do know that there are a lot of people (including me) that do not use their mother tongue for the OS interface... and choose English.
I'm developing in English and after that translate into other languages including my native...
I do agree that there needs to be a "pilot" phase for this... but I think in very short time you should extend this using any person that volunteers...
Taking in consideration the economic background for this period we should be pushing more and more press releases into as much languages as we can... and also hit "traditional" media: TV, radio, newspapers... probably most of them will be discarded but any rise in articles about Fedora is welcomed...
So all in all... when you're including Romanian... please count on me !

Hello dear Fedora Ambassadors,
During the last couple of weeks, the Fedora Marketing [1] group has done
some serious internal reorganization, most of which you probably don't
care about very much right now ;)
One important thing to notice is the apparition of something called the
"News Distribution Network" [2]. This is where we need you, the
Ambassadors!
The News Distribution Network is a joint effort between the marketing
group and the ambassador group to effectively push Fedora news to the
media. As you can see on [2], we are currently searching 2-3 people for
each of the following languages:
* English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi and Italian
Your role will be to help us spread news. If you read the whole page
[2], it should be pretty clear what we expect from you :)
If you are interested, feel free to contact me so we can discuss your
candidature during the next IRC marketing meeting next Tuesday.
