I hope at least 20-30% of the people involved in the project are at least near-native level speakers of non-Indo-European languages. Linguistic biases based on your mother tongue die hard, and I know this from having waded through tons and tons of software designed with biases built-in that woefully disregard Asian syntax, typography, input, grammar, semantics, etc etc etc. As the whole point of the project is multilingual support, I really hope the developers don’t underestimate how grammatically and semantically distant different language families can be.
