After reading this, I'm a bit confused. It sounds like he's look for
opportunities to converse with geek to better learn technical and
general english. If he's in germany, then I'd suggest a LUG there or as
you said a FLOSS project. Since I'm a Debian follower, they have many
German and german speaking developers. If you are in NYC, then come to
one of the many FLOSS lug meeting here.
cheers,
K
ps. One of the great things about FLOSS projects is their tolerance of
multiple language communication, like here. You can ask a question in
some language other than english and someone on the interweb can
translate it so that you get help.
