   I see HurdExtras as a place for translators that haven't found a
   better home.

How about changing this view?

Anyone maintaining a translator in hurdextras has both a CVS
repository, and can setup a web page.  Often it is alot of work to get
those things setup, and specially collecting them into one central
place so people can find it.
