I guess the Dutch among us know that Dutch is certainly not an easy
language - zwakke/sterke werkwoorden are often problems while studying
NT2 (Nederlands als Tweede Taal, Dutch as second language) (or NTn n>1).
I think it has been proposed at some time in the past, though - maarja,
de Nederlandse mailing list heeft 2 jaar geleefd en 4 berichten gehad,
dus erg veel animo is/was er niet (er is trouwens wel een
Nederlandstalig Python boek zag ik, Programming Python has been
translated).

getjampoerde groetjes,
Gerrit (who knows only Nederlands, Deutch, English, et un petit peu Français)
