🌍 English-first, to widen the reviewer pool
The German-only front page was the biggest barrier for international eyes. As of this release:
README.mdis now English (the project's default GitHub landing page). The German version lives on atREADME.de.md, linked from the top — both keep their full git history.- Commit messages and these release notes are now written in English.
Deliberately unchanged
The other bilingual docs (deploy/, docs/, config/) keep their German-primary + .en-twin layout, and the code comments plus the German-canonical UI/API/audit log stay as they are. Anglicising those would be a separate, larger effort — this release is the high-leverage, low-churn step.
Also this session
- First real pull-request workflow in use (this change went through PR #9, CI green, squash-merged) — building the history OpenSSF Scorecard reads for CI-Tests & Code-Review.
- CODEOWNERS now auto-requests reviewers — verified live on PR #9 (schr456 & sahnebar were requested automatically).
