i'm against offering any localization from the devs. it's a big amount of packages we don't know how important they are or better how often they are used*.

Is there some way we can find this out instead of just guessing one way or the other?

arch is developed and documented primarly in english and so we should concentrate to offer a good en_US.utf8 base. nothing more from the core.

I don't see why we can't also have good i18n support.

i suggest to lay i18n packages back into the community's hand. those packages are often easy to maintain but a hell of work for the rebuilders.

Don't the people who maintain these packages have scripts that will just build them all? Jason
