Either that or they'd improve their English skills.  Guess I'm going to have to 
find that Western European keyboard.

Doing so would somewhat limit the number and quality of replies they receive. 

I personally would be required to use babelfish.altatvista.com.

Stephen,

                You and your countrymen are free to use French here if you 
like.  Mine is VERY rusty, but the exercise would be useful.

All right, I am posting this in English because I find impolite to post
in a language that the majority doesn't understand, and all French
speakers on this list also speak English, but it only concerns those of
you who feel more comfortable in French than in English.
I have over the years met many good DBAs (many mediocre ones too, but
this is another topic) whose command on English was sufficient for
reading the docs but a bit 'light' to participate on this kind of list
as actively as they might otherwise have. I have often advertised this
list, but with little success amongst most French speakers. I guess that
many on this list have made the same observation.
I have just created a list named oraclefr on freelists.org (just like
oracle-l).
You subscribe to this list by sending email to
        oraclefr-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Web
interface.
I don't expect the traffic to be huge, especially in the beginnings, so
I guess that it will be easier to subscribe to both oracle-l and
oraclefr than to oracle-l and the lazydba list (I dare hardly mention
the off-topic list). Please advertise widely, especially to people who
are English-shy.
