Bonjour Guillaume !

I'm sorry ... my French is too bad to keep this thread alive ;) ...

I didn't ... but I can't remember a list especially from you at all.

Some points need to be polished, other ones crave for an implementation :) ...

I can't really imagine that a foreign program language is a decicise issue. I'd 
choose the software by its features and functionality - and if it was available 
in English and German for the same price I'd still prefer the English one. I 
hate those brain-dead translations and avoid non-English software on all 
platforms wherever I can.

I've been dreaming of this for some years ...

Why "bother" me? This is an issue which is of interest for all the members.
