Most of us have commit access to APR. I'm probably the only active APR
developer, but Karl, Ben, Fitz, and Mike all have commit access, too.

Third choice, and the one we *are* choosing: leave it all out.

We will come back to the localization and i18n issue after 1.0. At that
point, we'll do a comprehensive sweep of the entire code base after we
choose how we want to approach the problem.

Until then: *nothing* regarding i18n goes in. (well, unless you want to call
choosing UTF-8 as a subtle nod to i18n charset issues...)
