 * It strikes me a slightly odd that properly internationalized
 * software should needs its own category.  After all, should all
 * software be properly internationalized?   (okay, I'm dreaming a
 * bit...)

You're quite right.  I'd rather just slap them on top of the original
ones.  But then the problem becomes that we'll start falling behind in 
the ever so intense latest-version-of-the-day game.  (Not that we
haven't already, of course.)

 * How about an "arrogant-us-english-only-imperial-software" ports
 * category to put things in proper perspective?

Maybe I can rename the old ones of the way (fvwm2-english anyone?) and 
put the international ports in their place.
