It depends. Let's see...
Just now I read the message by Bernd Groh entitled "About the new Status 
Pages". This message is very clear and to the point.

This message defined the maintainer as:
"A Maintainer is the person commited to providing a high-quality translation 
of that module to the user-community. Yes, the maintainer is also the one who 
takes the blame for a bad translation"

According to this definition, I have no choice but to take the maintainership 
until I finished the translation and the QA/blame phase. After that I will 
gladly handle the maintainership to someone else and make a party to get rid 
of the ghost ;)

The dist.po file is at work. I will begin committing from Saturday. (thursday 
and friday is off here).

Regarding the mailing list, I am not sure whether this is related or what 
responsibilities it carries. I feel it need 24/7 work in front of a PC ;)

Finally, I am sure that the good guys here have contributed to Fedora and 
Linux much more than me and just it happend by chance that I have a team 
under my hands these days and I am trying to make use of this oppertunity as 
much as possible.
