Everything that affects internationalisation should result into a
e-mail from me.

Everything that affects the balance of power between the content
providing users and the reusers should result into a e-mail from me.

The GFDL has set a certain balance of power. This balance of power is
a "spirit". A promise has been made that "Such new versions will be
similar in spirit to the present version" (1). I am just remembering
and reminding, if need be, this promise.
