I don't know. I have no insight in Foundation membership handling --
that's processed by the Foundation membership committee. However, I

Yes, certainly! There are plenty of translators who have applied for
and received Foundation membership. I also recommend every translator
who wants to have more to say in how GNOME is governed to apply for
Foundation membership: http://foundation.gnome.org/.
