Since we have the 'cvsl10n' group already well populated, that is a good
way to go.

Is anyone available today to port the changes from the fedora-doc-utils
git repo back to the CVS module?

There are now two aspects:

1. Updates to docs-common
2. New languages in LINGUAS

For the first, what about opening up docs-common to cvsl10n so people
can just check in the files they need to?

For the second, the only thing I can think of is to send a request for
each language, and a git committer can make the change.

OK, once we know what that is.
