Hi Wesley, First of all, your list pages *rock*, I didn't know about them. On Wed, Aug 25, 2004 at 06:08:53PM +0200, Wesley W.

(I had never heard of it before adding > debian-users-catalan to the archive) It's spoken in the east and northeast regions of Spain, mostly in the territories known as Catalonia (Catalunya), Valencian Country (País Valencià) and Balear Islands. The South East departments of France also have Catalan speakers, and it is the official language of the tiny country of Andorra, in the Pyrenees. It is also spoken in the small town of L'Alguer, in Sardinia (Italy). In all, there must be around 7-9M users of the Catalan language in these territories.
