It is a bit confusing, a conversation in progress, but if anyone has  
input they should just tack it onto the end and it'll get moved/ 
cleaned up as the page evolves.  A discussion here is of course great  
too, and any points should/will get recorded into the policy  
discussion page.

Agree with both of these, I just included an i18n section on the page  
for ideas on how to do the localization.

I think both are potentially useful but must have a careful policy  
around them, small images and good hyperlinks could be very valuable  
to a searcher.
