Eh? I'm not aware of anyone's commit rights having been taken away. If
you had commit rights before, you should still have them.

You don't automatically get commit rights just by joining a mailing
list, not on any open source project. If you want to commit, you have
to ask the project owner to add you. In this case, that's Ray Smith.
His email address should be easy to find.

It's a gettext convenience macro, for localisation. It's a small first
step towards making Tesseract translatable, mostly made to see what
broke (thanks to Zdenko, btw, for finding the breakage).

Hey, by all means, prove me wrong.

That's you opinion; it's also your time and your money, so use them as
you see fit.
