It is everyone's decision. There isn't a secret cabal that makes
decisions. Whoever writes the code is the one who makes the decision.
That's how everything works around here.

You are only an outsider if you choose to make yourself one. If you
think you know how i18n should be done and we have no idea how to do
it (and we probably don't), tell us about it. And edit the wiki. It's
not a super-secret developers-only wiki. Instead of putting your
thoughts in this mailing list, put them in the wiki. They're much more
useful for posterity there.
