Alternatively, a project like that may be a great chance to do a
*really* thorough job.  Buildbot has had a number of projects (not
just in GSoC) that were only barely finished, and that leaves a lot of
work for the maintainers to fix the bugs, add the missing bits, update
the docs, and so on.

Ponder this: what is the difference between just "finishing" the i18n
project and making sure that Buildbot users and translators have a
really great experience?  Include your plans in your application.
