Particularly since the first two parts of the newsgroups' name clearly
states "no italian". :-)

How about a joke that depends on three languages, John? :-)

The norwegian newsgroups about computers and information technology
starts with no.it.* , and frequently some Italian guy is asking 
some question in Italian. Funny in the beginning but after a while it
becomes quite annoying.

Killjoy... :-)
A thread where each post was in a different language would be quite
fun IMHO!

And a while after becoming annoyed, you will become fluent in Italian.
Isn't it great? :-)

    I just have to share this...  At one ARG meeting, there was an issue
where there were two possible interpretations of the Ada 83 RM. 
However, there was no particular reason to choose either
interpretation.  Jean Ichbiah suggested that as this was an ISO group,
and the French and English versions of the standard hadco-equal
standing, we should resolve in favor of the Fench wording.  He whipped
out his version of the French standard and turned to the appropriate
section and began to read.  Oops!

   He then turned to Mike Woodger, who had done the French translation
of this section and complemented him, saying that he (Jean) had been
sure that Mike would have chosen one of the two obvious alternatives,
but he had translated the ambiguity into French perfectly!

   Now out came the new German standard, a Danish translation, and I
think the Swedish, Italian, and Japanese translations.  With
half-a-dozen versions being compared in the appropriate languages, the
table was a modern day Tower of Babel.  At this point John Goodenough
interrupted Jean Ichbiah and asked him to switch back to English.  Jean
appologized and said that he hadn't realized he was still using French. 
He offered to repeat what he had just said in English.

   John Goodenough said he didn't think that would be necessary and
looked around the table getting nods of agreement.  John Goodenough said
he just needed Jean to switch back to English because John was taking
the official minutes, and couldn't possibly keep up when Jean was
speaking French!  (For those who have never met Jean, he spoke English
with a relaxed, mid-Atlantic accent, but his French was the machine-gun
style you often hear in Paris.  Even in English, Jean speaks quite
rapidly, in French you get quite out of breath just listening. ;-)

    As for the actual issue at hand, all those various translations were
no real help, and we ended up making an almost arbitrary choice.  (Which
is exactly what the ARG is supposed to do--resolve ambiguities.  It is
much more important that all involved agree on a meaning than which of
several equally good choices is made in some obscure--by
definition!--corner of the language.)
