Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but what technical decisions effect artwork
or translations or the management of documentation?

I cannot remember ever dealing with anything involving artwork in my entire
tenure in FESCo.  Documentation is impacted from a content point of view, but
they have their own committee and aside from the Feature stuff FESCo doesn't
really have any direct impact on them.  Similarly for translation.
