Hi,
I suggest also to keep only the word of coordinator, and the sponsor
is gonna be important in the future - if we gonna have a proper
leadership group who is coordinating the language team leaders, giving
out permissions, and keeping the drill running,makes news, and new
available resources. You mentioned the "helping the best end-user
language experience" role but this is already exists - called in
Zanata as Reviewer, or more precisely were called in Transifex earlier
as proofreader, what is can be set by the coordinator.

Yes, JB :-)
Let me iterate here.
[Sponsor]
Within FAS group, there are three types of roll; user, sponsor and
administrator. If 'sponsor' is mentioned in somewhere l10 related wiki
page, it highly likely points 'cvsl10n' group's 'sponsor'. Fedora
language team coordinator should obtain this roll type, so that he/she
can approve other translators as 'user's when they apply for join group.
[Coordinator]
This refers to the language coordinator, who helps, supports and leads
his/her language team.
[Maintainer]
Afaik, 'L10N Maintainer' wiki page is the only one place using this
term. In this page, 'maintainer' refers to 'coordinator' meaning exact
same. The page url consists of this term, thus it can not be changed.
Please feel free to create new page of 'L10N_Coordinator' and copy the
content.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N_Maintainer
[Leader]
Just general term, who is active and leading teams/people.

+1 to fedora localization/language team "coordinator".
