Friedel is the GNOME Afrikaans translation team coordinator and quite
involved in improving and pushing translation processes for African
languages in Free and Open Source software in general.
He has provided lots of translations for GNOME in Afrikaans (and now
finally has received a git account to commit them himself).
I think that his ideas and concepts are helpful and valuable for I18N in
general (my impression based on his blog, IRC chats and a personal talk
we had at FOSDEM 2009).

Hence I'd love to see him becoming a GNOME foundation member.
