Non-native English celebration fest

In response to some wanker complaining that there were posts in Russian on the Dreamwidth latest-posts feed, how horrible, make them go away, [personal profile] yvi is organizing a non-native English* celebration fest.

I suspect most of the people reading this who have a non-English native language also read her and already know about it, but just in case, I thought I'd share.

*the discussion in comments gets into how to be most inclusive, eg, for people who grew up in formerly-colonized countries and spoke primarily English until they learned their ancestral tongue later or learned them simultaneously, etc.
