I thought it worth mentioning that everyone opposed to this idea is capable of communicating in English. I am guilty of being monolingual, but if the most popular online source code management community used a language X that I did not know how to speak (especially if X was considered the lingua franca of software development), it would be a huge barrier of entry to me. While I would do well to learn X, an english localization of that platform would greatly ease my transition and encourage me to communicate with the predominantly-X speaking community. I would like to get the opinions on localization of github from people who are currently unable to communicate in English with a high enough proficiency to read these comments and voice their position here.
