Hello,
Yesterday after some talks in IRC we thought It would be good if we
kill off the i18n submodule and bring the files into core, compat will
have the i18n folder but won't receive any updates. One of major
advantage of this action is making installation of pywikibot so much
easier.
Another thing that is happening for i18n is that we are migrating to json [1].
Any comment about these actions is very welcome.
Best
