 it a Canonical plugin, one supported by WP Contributors, this edibility
 could be improved going forward.

 I'm not sure that's actually a viable option right now, it doesn't really
 achieve anything that's needed. There are other plugins that exist with
 the intention of having future-drafts with a edit/approval flow; but the
 biggest flaw in it all is the lack of a public edit log, a public editing
 interface, and publicly trackable awaiting-review text change suggestions.

 GlotPress, and have them end up on WordPress sites already translated.

 There's zero need for Github to be involved in that process; It can just
 as easily (and perhaps even easier) pull from a WordPress post.

 I don't know the background on the Community summit decisions, but it
 doesn't mean they were the correct decisions, or were made without input
 from those who were needed.
