- the split for foreign languages authors is
done, as per my conviction, because it will give a better
chance to some of the very good foreign authors that were
not, or scarcely, translated into English. I think the
Mailing List is cosmopolitan enough to bring something out of
that domain (hopefully)
-In my first proposal, it was implicit that the numbers of
names in each category had to be understood
'up to' as they were given as 'maximum'. This, IMO, to avoid
that some answers include names only for the sake of reaching
the required numbers.
