OK, well I had a discussion last night with some folks from the incubator
PMC and frankly it upset me. It was one of those evenings when you realise
how crap organisations can be and makes you wonder why you bother with them
:( I really wasn't impressed.

i18n isn't a code project. It isn't even an documentation project.
In fact, there doesn't even seem to be any reason for it to be a project.
Why would incubator have anything to do with it?


I wasn't present for your conversation, but I am not at all surprised
by the result.

Personally, I think that creating a project that consists of people that
want to work on other projects is a bit weird.  Why don't you just ask
for a mailing list?  The actual commits will have to be made by the
specific projects, not by an uber-i18n-committee, so project formation
doesn't make any sense.

An ASF project exists as an organizational mechanism for releasing software
that might otherwise get people sued as individuals. It does not exist
for the sake of replacing USENET news or community mailing lists.
