Description
Why should Brainstorm ideas be limited only to those that speak English? This isn't fair. One should be able to submit ideas in other languages (through a simple alternate language version of the site) and have the ideas cross-referenced by language (so that the English ones don't drown out the comparatively alternate language ones). There are quite a few ideas posted here that have a disclaimer about poor English or that just use a translator, and sometimes the notion of the idea is "lost in translation" or the poor wording/grammar leads to people voting it down.

People should learn English or commit seppuku.
Like I did, English is not my native language.

i agree with you, that is somewhat unfair to those that don't speak English, but i think the ability to have a centralized suggestion site is more important.

This is a very general issue, not only for Ubuntu Brainstorm, but as soid OOtrav, there is no alternative to the use of a unique language, as it would be highly inefficient to decentralize the discussion.
Of course, usage of English is unfair for 90% of the world. Maybe we should have a Brainstorm in Esperanto instead !
