Nope (to your first question). We don't have a real i18n crew yet. It might |
| 5 |
be a good idea for form one; we do have good support for i18n generally |
| 6 |
(package maintainers are using the LINGUAS and the documentation has |
| 7 |
references to locales and such) but an expertise group can probably improve |
| 8 |
the distribution (for instance by adding the necessary man-pages-${LANG} |
| 9 |
ebuilds, etc.). |

I'm not in favor of having a non-English official bugzilla. Tooooo much |
| 14 |
resources to put in it; I'd rather use translation teams to continuously |
| 15 |
keep translating interesting stuff, like documentation but also help with |
| 16 |
the localisation of Portage if that ever comes this far. |

Translating bugs is such a waist of resources... |
