After noticing a request for a link to an old Italian translation of some AutoHotkey help information, and a request to write a guide to AutoHotkey in Japanese. It reminded me of the idea of whether AutoHotkey should add further forums for key languages such as: Japanese, Italian and Portuguese.
This would help encourage the growth and flourishing of AutoHotkey around the world, and would help unleash and support the inventiveness of these countries.
Some statistics on language and the Internet.
The 6 languages we have at present, plus the 3 I suggested, would give the top 9 languages worldwide.
Languages used on the Internet - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages ... e_Internet
Based on the 'Content languages for websites' table, the top 9:
1 English 51.6%
2 Russian 6.6%
3 Japanese 5.6% <<<
4 German 5.6%
5 Spanish 5.1%
6 French 4.1%
7 Portuguese 2.6% <<<
8 Italian 2.3% <<<
9 Chinese 2.0%
