Well there is a larger project underway which we're calling "rethinking
evolt.org" which is basically an IA/rethinking w.e.o.* "Rethinking
w.e.o" should definitely stay here.
Internationalisation would be folded into that (IOW we won't make
choices for w.e.o. that run against our ability to move forward with
i18n), but i18n/l10n is a big enough project on its own that I think it
deserves its own group.
The internationalisation/localisation part is something that I think we
should really say, "ok, we have already decided to go this direction,
years ago, it just got set aside for more pressing issues." But there is
only MORE reason to move ahead on this today. The time is here. So
instead of sitting back and waiting for yet another rehashing, we're**
saying "let's move forward on this one, regardless."
