I don't expressly prohibit non-English posts, Alejandro, but please
understand that your odds of getting a reply are seriously damaged if the
post is not in English.
I would prefer, though, and it will help you as well, that any non-English
posts should include a English translation in the same message (no matter how
bad the translation).
Incidentally, it's also been my observation that most people whose primary
language is not English, usually don't speak/translate as poorly as they
-think- they do -- but then perhaps that's because us U.S. people are now
constantly surrounded by lazy Americans who -cannot- speak or write English.
