Dear Khemaramsi and friends,

it would be much appreciated if everyone refrains from posting
messages other than in English and Velthuis Pali. Velthuis Sanskrit,
and Pali in non-Roman scripts are acceptable as long as they serve
chiefly for illustration purposes and form only a small portion of the
overall message. The same can be said for other languages and
character sets.

Message title should strictly be in English or Velthuis Pali. When
there is an exception, please use at least English in the leading
portion of the title.

In Khemaramsi's previous message, both the title and message are fully
in Chinese. The title is in Unicode, while the message body is in
Big-5 encoding. This group serves an English audience, so a message in
Chinese is incomprehensible to most of us. Besides, it also contains
some characters rendered invalid by XML, and cripples the automatic
update of the group's activity on the homepage of tipitaka.net.

So much being said, I like to mention that there is a Pali group for
Chinese for those who are interested. The link is:

metta,
Yong Peng.
