You are probably right.  This doesn't seem to be in line with the Apache
way of doing things.

I am certainly not religous about the contents of that list.  It should
contain anyone who has made significant contributions to the
documentation.  Anyone who has commit access qualifies, but I agree that
shouldn't be a requirement.

If you want, you can create a separate section for translators.  (Or just
add them in to the main section.)
