...like non-English-speakers can't sufficiently use any English site. Of course
there are more non-German-speakers than non-English-speakers in the world :-)

Now, that's kind of a political statement that does not belong to this thread
and to this web site at all.
You can say: 1000steine.de is a (one) European Community Site, because Germany
clearly is located in Europe. There are other European Community Sites as well,
like www.lowlug.nl for Dutch-speakers. I would not say 1000steine.de is THE
European Community Site. (And yes, there are many non-German vistors and members
at 1000steine.de who come from throughout the world. That makes it an
international site.)
