Hi,

I respect and partially agree with Leonardo. In the specific case of pt_PT and pt_BR there is also an agreement between governments to integrate both languages in the long term. However, it is the _ideal_ situation. In my specific situation, I am dealing with undergraduate students and need to be understood. As the say in Total Quality Management, we need to hear our customers. :)

BTW, is much more difficult to Wikipedia to handle different languages than in MoinMoin. Also, Wikipedia has an important role to play in this process of language integration. I don't think the same happens with MoinMoin.

Regards,

Eduardo Isatto
