Well, thats an interesting question!!



In my opinion the hacks shall be released in English as most people are used to the language.

I think it depends on which language the person actually is capable of speaking with any proficiency. I wouldn't want them in English if it was just a really crappy translation. It would be nice to be able to read it, yes, but I'm not entirely convinced it would help if they speak it so terribly.

Of course, if they can do it, I'd prefer it to be in English. But that's just me being selfish.

(More importantly, the word that belongs in your post is SHOULD, not SHALL. Shall implies that it WILL be that way.)

The hacker's original language should always be first (because unless they're fluent in English too, the hack will just be ridden with horrible grammar and spelling.)

Then a translator fluent in English and the original language can be hired, and the result will hopefully turn out okay.
