*ugh*

I re-checked the URL three times when I suddenly read the Main page completely in German (and basically didn't find anything anymore, because some things just don't translate well).

Is there any way I can have the English Version back ???

(besides, some translations rather make for a good laugh, but are terribly wrong or misleading)

Look this thread.
I would like to have the german version just on demand, not forced upon me. It's hard enough to get all my german windoof language translated for use here ;)

Switch the preferred locale to en-US in your browser and you get the english version back ;)

Why on earth did they do this?

I'd like to decide on my own...
