I'm very interested in maintaining i18n packages.
I do maintain aspell-uk and it won't be hard to me to do the same with
more packages.
Besides, any TU can update any package, updates won't get stalled as
in country's local community repo because maintainer is busy.
Also, not all local communities have own servers and even if they do -
not all users will be aware of them as some visit official site more
than local (at least in my country).
