How do we get a commitment that there will be a process to govern this decision?
What would you like? We can schedule a formal review process with the various community groups to discuss the future of L10N technologies after the F15 release, if that is what you're looking for.
Thank you, Tom.
Should we work the program manager or with yourself directly? I am mindful I am spamming lists.
Robyn Bergeron is the Program Manager, she should be able to schedule this and ensure that all interested parties are invited.
Also, Mike, I wouldn't call your input spam by any stretch -- it's on topic, and useful for the community to understand how our work affects downstream consumers, participants, and each other.
Thanks, Paul,

It looks truly incomplete. I never miss anaconda and system-config-printer translation. I work for those modules almost in every release since 2007 because I use the too much. I'm not there in 2009 [1], 2010 and 2011. I'm not in the list in 2006, I started in August 2006. I also do packagekit translations not so often, but when I see strings untranslated when I use it, And I use it too much. So it might be untranslated in the release but complete before the eol. The translations contribution for rpm and yum are not even listed in 2010, and I contributed for both of them, an example in [2]. For yum, I succeeded uploading translations by sending an email to the package maintainer, remember there was no upload support for yum, and upstream was really unreachable; I guess yum is in other languages because of Fedora and Red Hat not because of upstream.
Daniel Cabrera (logan) is not even listed, and he contributed almost all of the virt-xxx packages. Virtualization support is in Spanish because of Daniel Cabrera and some others who helped there. He helped in many other modules too with so many strings, more than thousands.
Guillermo Gomez (gomix) is missing in the list too. I guess he started since Fedora Core 2, I don't remember now. He knew the translations process when it was the really hard way.
Many friends from Chile, who contributed a lot, are not in the list too.
Some from central and north America are missing there too.
No need to mention docs and websites.
I take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to all Spanish translators who have ever helped in the Fedora L10N Project and for whom we were not able to acknowledge them somehow. Not even an email that lists them at least.
I'm sure we can improve this in the future.
