[edit] Arguments against

[edit] General discussion

• Note that arguments must be presented supporting the creation of this project per the Language proposal policy. —{admin} Pathoschild 08:04:40, 01 April 2007 (UTC)

• Certainly a legitimate proposal, however, after three weeks, there is still no content in the test project. Looks like the proponents have lost interest. --Johannes Rohr 13:36, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

• The interest of cause is not lost and hardly will be. Certainly the significant progress will be in the middle of July (my vacation time, maybe not too fast but I do not consider this as a one day project). In the time before this the page will be build step-by-step. --Tagir Aushev 00:23, 4 May 2007 (CEST)
