I too agree that is not up to the board to decide which languages GNOME
supports.

But the board should listen to people like you that voice a concern about it
and act. They should:
* Help make sure the right people hear those concerns,
* Get feedback from other people and companies as appropriate. For example,
the board could invite you to an advisory board meeting to express your
concerns and get their feedback. They could also reach out to other projects
or work to get information about developer preferences in general (not just
current GNOME developers.)
* Facilitate the work. As Bastien stated, the Foundation can help organize
and fund hackfests that really help accelerate work.
