Most if not all of the subprojects in Fedora follow the guidelines established by the Board for defining projects, found here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DefiningProjects I'm not a big fan of organization just for organization's sake, if it stops people from being able to get things done. But steering committees in subprojects are *good* for a number of reasons, including identifying tasks, getting assignments made, and tracking progress. A steering committee serves as a central communication point between all the members of a subproject, other subprojects, and the Fedora Project Board. It also provides a unified voice and opportunities for solid decision making, empowering community leaders the contributors themselves identify and elect. I encourage the L10N (Translation) Project to start talking about an L10N Steering Committee. I also encourage interested community members to step up and serve as committee members to better organize and communicate about all the great work that's being done in L10N. Thanks to all contributors here for your hard work and incredible progress in making Fedora available to users worldwide! -- Paul W.
