I'd have assumed that the owner of a site like "treffpunkt-maemo.de" or whatever would be a native German speaker. And that there'd be a different, independent site in Spanish etc., and that none of these would formally depend on the current admins/sites.

(After all: It's us German speaking users who want to have it, why should somebody else do the work for us ?)
