Description

Hi,

what's the current position towards postings on ruby-lang.org that only affect specific communities? I've seen that the Japanese version of ruby-lang.org regularyly announces new issues of the Rubyist Magazine, which is presumly only available in Japanese and thus does not matter for other language's communities.

I specifically ask this question because I have offered the Cologne Ruby user group from Germany to post an article that they're looking for someone who organises the Ruby user group as the current organisator will resign at the end of the year. I originally assumed this would be fine, but after considering the articles other languages post on ruby-lang.org I found that only the Japanese version has additional posts compared to the canonical English version.

I am definitely in favour of allowing locale-specific postings on the site to strengthen the respective local communities. What's you opinion on the topic?

Greetings
Marvin
